Newcastle vs Manchester United 27.12.2021

With just one league win on the board this season, relegation to the championship might be on the horizon for Newcastle. Seeking a quick turnaround to their fortune, the Magpies welcome Man United on Monday.

Following a number of postponements due to Covid, Man United head into this tie knowing a win would put pressure on fellow top-four hopefuls and re-ignite their season.

Looking at the form of both teams at the moment, we are backing Rangnick’s men to win or draw with less than four goals scored.
