Newcastle vs Man United Preview
The hosts come into this game on the back of four consecutive wins in all competitions, including a Carabao Cup final triumph over Liverpool, which delivered the club's first major trophy since 1955. Their last Premier League game saw them sweep past lowly Leicester with ease, thanks to goals from Jacob Murphy x2 and Harvey Barnes in the first half. The simplicity of the win meant that Eddie Howe could manage the workload and rest key players in the second half.
The Toon Army currently sit fifth in the Premier League, four points off third-place Nottingham Forest with a game in hand. However, with sides like Manchester City and Aston Villa hot on their tails, Howe will be keen to ensure there are no slip-ups between now and the end of the season. He will also be looking to improve his side's home form. They have taken fewer points at home than they have away.
Ruben Amorim has shown signs of improvement when in charge of Manchester United, but his spell has still been majorly underwhelming. The Red Devils sit thirteenth in the league and face an uphill battle to finish in the top half.
Therefore, seeing a rotated side after they drew 2-2 with Lyon in France on Thursday would not be a surprise. It was an even game that could’ve gone either way but was ultimately settled by two mistakes from Andre Onana, who may be taken out of the spotlight on Sunday.
Newcastle vs Man United Betting Tips
Kieran Trippier has been reinstated in the Newcastle side since the injury of Lewis Hall and has excelled. The 34-year-old is averaging 3.14 tackles per 90 this season. He will likely face off against Patrick Dorgu and Alejandro Garnacho who are dispossessed 1.38 and 1.78 times per 90 respectively. They are also fouled 2.88 and 2.10 times per 90 – the most from the Manchester United squad.
After flopping as an attacker since his move from Hoffenheim, Joelinton has been reinvented as a midfielder and is now one of the best in the league, forming a formidable partnership with Sandro Tonali and Bruno Guimaraes. The bustling Brazilian is averaging 2.11 fouls per 90, as well as 0.36 yellow cards per 90.
Manuel Ugarte is his side's highest fouler, making 2.27 fouls per 90, averaging 0.46 yellow cards per 90 this season. Playing against Bruno Guimaraes (3.27 fouls drawn per 90), Joelinton (1.33 fouls drawn per 90) and Sandro Tonali (1.56 fouls drawn per), he should be busier than usual. He has been subbed off for Mason Mount in his last two games, with the England international booked in these two cameos, averaging 2.73 fouls and 0.78 yellows per 90 in limited minutes.
