Head-to-head statistics Newcastle - Manchester United

Newcastle United Team Overview
⚫ In mid-March, Newcastle clinched the League Cup, securing their first trophy in 70 years. It could have been a season-ending moment. However, the coaching staff successfully motivated the players to continue their fight in the Premier League. After the international break, the Magpies defeated Brentford (2-1) and thrashed Leicester (3-0) last week. By the 11th minute, Jacob Murphy had already netted a brace, sealing the outcome. Currently, Newcastle sit fifth in the league table with a game in hand. This positions them to not only overtake Chelsea but also close the gap on Nottingham Forest.
📣 Eddie Howe fell ill this week, so Newcastle's preparations for the upcoming fixture were overseen by his assistant, Jason Tindall. He hopes the head coach will be able to lead the team against Manchester United: “He’s been really unwell over the last couple of days, but we’ve stayed in touch. We’ve been talking three or four times a day, so it hasn’t affected our preparations. We still have a couple of days, and I’m confident he’ll be fine by the weekend.”
❌ Anthony Gordon has served his suspension and recovered from injury, but his participation in the upcoming match remains uncertain. Meanwhile, long-term absentees Sven Botman, Jamaal Lascelles, and Lewis Hall are definitely out. Joe Willock, who picked up an injury against Brentford and missed last week's game, joins them on the sidelines.

Manchester United Team Overview
🔴 Manchester United have only managed a win against Leicester (3-0) in their last four Premier League outings. However, the other opponents were all vying for a Champions League spot. For instance, the recent Manchester derby ended in a goalless draw, leaving few satisfied with its outcome. Nevertheless, Ruben Amorim’s side were slightly closer to clinching victory at Old Trafford.
🔗 That said, Manchester United could still find themselves in the Champions League by winning the Europa League, where they are considered one of the favorites. Recently, the Red Devils secured a decent result ahead of their second-leg clash with Lyon in Manchester (2-2).
📣 Ruben Amorim reflects on the draw with Manchester City: “I think we had chances to win. We tried to exploit open spaces on the counter, defended with a low block, but we had our moments... We need to spend more time in the attacking third to create more opportunities.”
❌ Manchester United’s injury issues are concentrated in defense. Matthijs de Ligt and Lisandro Martinez, both potential starters, are sidelined. Johnny Evans is a less significant absence. In attack, they will miss Amad Diallo, who has been out since February.
