Match Overview
A rivalry matchup with plenty at stake headlines the weekend, as Manchester United look to rebound after a setback against Aston Villa that once again stalled their push toward a European spot. The Red Devils have repeatedly let chances slip when a move into the top tier of the table was within reach, but urgency is building as the season wears on.
Standing in their way are Newcastle, a side still searching for consistency after a slow opening stretch. Sitting on 23 points and six back of the European positions, the Magpies know a strong result could jump-start their campaign and narrow the gap in what is shaping up to be a tightly contested race.
