Newcastle vs Manchester United: prediction for the match | Odds2win

When preparing a prediction for Newcastle United - Manchester United, it is worth paying attention to past matches. The teams have already met once this year. The confrontation took place on February 26th in the final of the English League Cup and ended with a 2-0 victory for Man United (Casemiro, Rashford). It is worth noting that three matches in a row have been held with a total of less than 2.5.

Newcastle United

The international break may have come at an inconvenient time for Newcastle United, who had just started to gain momentum by winning consecutive Premier League matches after a string of failures. Moreover, the hosts have only recorded success in one of their previous eight games. Nevertheless, boss Eddie Howe wasted no time in sending his players for training in sunny Dubai, where he was "really pleased with what they showed."

Howe's charges continue to chase one of the spots in the European competitions, while trailing today's opponents by just three points from third place. Additionally, the "Magpies" have a desire to avenge their defeat in the English League Cup final, where they lost only one match at home throughout the tournament. 12 victories and 11 draws correspond to 47 points and fifth place.

Today, Kraft, Fraser, and Almiron will be unavailable, with the latter having a thigh injury.

Manchester United

Manchester United's Eric ten Hag stylishly went into the international break, as the team advanced to the semi-finals of the English Cup, securing a 3-1 victory over undisciplined Fulham, although the team now needs to return to the race for the top four. During this time, much attention may have been focused on training for shots, as United failed to score in two consecutive Premier League matches.

Another blank in the Premier League seems unimaginable for the guests, who have not scored in any of their three consecutive EPL matches since 2020, nor in consecutive head-to-head meetings since 1997. Reopening their scoring form will be crucial for any success for United, as only relegation-threatened Leicester, Nottingham, and Bournemouth have conceded more goals away from home before this round than MU. The guests have 15 wins and five draws, which corresponds to 50 points and third place in the table.

Sabitzer, Rashford, Martial, Eriksen, Casemiro, Van de Beek, Greenwood, and Garancho, who has a foot injury, will not help their team. More pure soccer prediction can be obtained from the link provided.
