Manchester United - Newcastle United betting tips and odds

The online bookies marked Manchester United as the favourites, which makes a lot of sense. Still, we wouldn’t put Newcastle United winning beyond them – not to mention that draws are a strong possibility in relatively balanced games.

Newcastle appear severely unprepared for a clash with Manchester United, to the point of being considered hard underdogs. We would consider even a draw a success, so the long 3.80 odds for an away win bit seem fitting.

The victory Manchester Utd recorded in the previous round was by no means spectacular, but winning as visitors is still good for morale. Most online bookies gave them a slight edge with favourable betting odds, and they delivered on those expectations with a 1:2 win on the back of an early-game lead.

The visiting team won their previous Premier League matchup 5:1 after maintaining a lead throughout the runtime. Their home supporters were likely glad to enjoy the HT/FT victory, but the favourable pre-match betting odds mean that the victory was quite expected.

The hosts will be looking to cut down on the number of goals they concede. They’ve recorded more than 5 total concessions over the last 3 matches, which is usually a cause for concern.

With 10 goals in their previous 3 Premier League matches, The Magpies boast some of the most prolific strikers of the league. Top online bookies are predicting another action-packed game.

The 5th spot in the standings Man. Utd currently hold is promising – though they’re set on moving up further into the Champions League spots, Europa League finish to the season would still be a good prize for the hosts.

Though it’s hard to say Newcastle started the season on a strong note, their fairly decent table position is at risk. Beating The Red devils will be no easy task – but it’s a necessary step if they ever wish to reach the Europa qualifying spots.

The betting odds are clearly in the hosts’ favour, and the last time they clashed with Newcastle things went their way. In fact, they snagged a decisive victory with an advantage of more than two goals.

The hosts went through a slew of unfortunate injuries recently, rendering some of their players unavailable for the match this Sunday. Harry Maguire, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Donny van de Beek, Anthony Martial will not be playing, though the team is still considered likely to win.

You can safely put down an Over 2.5 Goals bet on this match and feel very confident. If the teams’ records are any indication, 3 or more goals in this match are almost guaranteed.
