NEW vs MUN Match Preview
Newcastle United is set to host Manchester United. This is going to be a tight PL 2023/24 battle between the sixth-placed team Man United (24 points) and the seventh-placed side Newcastle United (23 points).
Except for one defeat against Liverpool last August, Newcastle United won all their other six home matches in this PL season. In their last six PL matches, the Magpies failed to win away games (two draws and one defeat) but earned three points in all three home games. Fitness issues are the major concern for the Magpies.
On the other hand, Manchester United are currently in strong form in the Premier League. The Red Devils won five of their last six PL games, only suffering a loss against Manchester City at home. Since their defeat against Arsenal in early September, United won all their last four away PL encounters.
