Man United vs Newcastle

Newcastle boss Eddie Howe has reported no new injury concerns and may name the same team for a third straight game. Sunday's match is expected to come too soon ...

- Miguel Almiron is vying to score in three consecutive Premier League appearances for the first time. - The Magpies have scored nine goals in their last two league fixtures, compared to just eight in their opening seven. - Newcastle are vying to score at least four goals in three consecutive league matches for the first time since October 1961. That should make things more open, which might help Manchester United. - Manchester United have won five of their past six Premier League games - as many victories as in their previous 18 fixtures. But I fancy Newcastle because they have been taking the game to their opposition, and the goals have started to flow - they have scored nine in their past two matches.

Preview of Manchester United's Premier League meeting with Newcastle United, ...

In a match where their visitors will undoubtedly play a prominent, probing role, the Red Devils could extend their impressive record in this fixture. Howe's side have lost just once all season and are scarcely flattered by their sixth-place position going into the weekend. Allan Saint-Maximin made his return from injury off the bench against Brentford last weekend and could be afforded his first start since August at Old Trafford. Jonjo Shelvey is "ahead of schedule" in his return from a nasty thigh injury according to Howe. Donny van de Beek and Aaron Wan-Bissaka are both in the process of recovering from muscular injuries. The Red Devils are perched narrowly above Eddie Howe's high-flying outfit despite playing one match fewer.

Erik ten Hag briefed the media ahead of Manchester United's game with Newcastle United on Sunday, as our busy October schedule continues.

He is a player who can adapt quickly to a high level and is a player who likes challenges, and he needs the challenges. Every training for him is a challenge, every game is a challenge, and that will make the best out of him and he likes that. Have the FA given you an idea of when there will be an outcome on Cristiano Ronaldo’s charge and whether he will be available for those games? The intuition, the space they have to take and when they have that feeling you will have players who when they have the talent, when they have the potential, they will score that number of goals. So I think there is really a lot of space for improvement with him, but I think he’s already at a really good level when you are the first player who scored in three in a row, three goals for Manchester United in all history. “He did a lot of things well, but finally, he knows that he has to be more clinical and he has to score a goal. So we don’t have a timeline.” But for the rest, we have to go game to game, and we’re going to be against tough opponents but we are really looking forward. But it can change to another game, because I think he is on a really good run and that proves the chances he creates. That’s the kind of impact he has to give to the team. On Sunday he deserves a goal that they cancelled, and today he didn’t score and maybe it was maybe more by himself. “I go always from game to game, and it gives another impetus on the team to believe I think.
