Game Preview
Michael Carrick’s immediate impression since taking over at Man United has lifted the Red Devils up to third in the Premier League standings. However, the team’s next two fixtures could ultimately determine how high in the table they finish.
United’s form is rock-solid, having won four of their last five. The Red Devils battled back from a goal down to overcome Crystal Palace on Sunday, with Benjamin Sesko netting for the fourth game running.
United’s away form has also been very strong throughout this season, losing just one of their last eleven. Bruno Fernandes is United’s key attacking player, having registered an impressive 13 EPL assists in 2025-26.
Eddie Howe is coming under increasing pressure for the first time during his stint at Newcastle boss. The Magpies sit 13th in the EPL standings, and their overall form since the turn of the year has been miserable, losing four of their last five.
Newcastle have also suffered defeats in each of their last five matches at St. James’ Park, marking their worst losing run at home since 2018. Interestingly, the Magpies have lost just two of their last 20 evening kick-offs in the Premier League at their home stadium.
Newcastle vs. Man United Picks
Man United’s improvement under Carrick means that they won’t be scared of any rival. However, it could be argued that, based on their recent form away from home against Newcastle, a point would be considered a positive result on Wednesday.
