Newcastle vs Manchester United – Predicted lineup and team news | OneFootball

Newcastle United take on Manchester United in a huge Premier League game this weekend.

Eddie Howe’s side are hunting down Champions League qualification and will target a fourth consecutive league win at St James’ Park.

Fifth in the table heading into the weekend, the news that the Premier League will be allocated a fifth Champions League place for next season has boosted the Magpies’ hopes of a return to Europe’s elite.

Their opponents arrive mired in the bottom half. Amid pre-season expectations of a top-four finish, the Red Devils are 13th after a disappointing domestic campaign. Ruben Amorim’s primary focus is likely to be on the Europa League, ahead of their quarter-final second leg with Lyon on Thursday night.
