Newcastle – Manchester Utd SOCCER PICKS

“The worst Manchester United team in decades!” After the poor performances of the “Red Devils” this season, the former English professional Michael Owen precipitated this verdict over the team of coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. In the league, United is only in tenth place after seven games, twelve points behind leaders Liverpool.

Also in the Europa League on Thursday it was only enough for a weak 0: 0 at AZ Alkmaar. The criticism of the coach, who was initially engaged as interim coach for Jose Mourinho last season and then received a contract as head coach, is getting louder. Especially in foreign countries, Manchester is struggling and has been waiting for a win for ten away matches.

In the Premier League is on Sunday evening again on an away game. Opponent is Newcastle United. The Magpies are only five points on the penultimate place in the league and also have big problems themselves. For five official games Newcastle could no longer win. Will the crew of Steve Bruce end their negative series against the Red Devils anyway?

However, Newcastle is one of Manchester United’s favorite opponents. Despite the poor outcomes of recent months, the bookmakers send the guests ahead of the match against Newcastle. Also, the betting base expects the “Red Devils” and sets the duel Newcastle Vs. Manchester United their tip on “victory Manchester United”.

Newcastle:

At the end of the previous season, the “Magpies” with coach Rafa Benitez could not agree on a new contract and had to let the Spanish coach go. Benitez had worked for three years in Newcastle and made with the club promotion from the second division. Then he led United at the end of the season on the 10th and 13th places.

Successor was Steve Bruce from second division Sheffield Wednesday. So that the league can succeed even without Benitez, the team was reinforced in the summer for over 68 million euros. The two top transfers here were definitely Joelinton (Hoffenheim) and Allan Saint-Maximin (Nice). Nevertheless, in the Premier League it was only enough for one win of the season.

The Black-Whites celebrated something surprising with 1: 0 on Matchday 3 at the Spurs. Otherwise, only two more draws were added. With five points and a goal difference of 4:13, the “Magpies” are on the penultimate rank. In front of their own fans Newcastle is waiting for the first victory this season. In three home games succeeded only a goal.

This home record does not necessarily lead to a duel at Newcastle Vs. Manchester United make a prediction on the home side. On the final day of the match, coach Bruce’s men also suffered a bitter 0-5 defeat at Leicester City. There is still no coaching discussion in the northeast of England, but many such performances as last Sunday, the team certainly can not afford more, before the instructor is questioned.

The advantage for the coach is certainly the fact that one expects nothing more than the league from Newcastle. On Sunday night, the hosts miss the injured Florian Lejeune, Dwight Gayle, Matt Ritchie and Jonjo Shelvey and Isaac Hayden, who had seen the red card in the match against Leicester.

Manchester United:

Manchester United set a new record on Thursday night when they defeated AZ Alkmaar 0-0 and the “Red Devils” remained for the first time in their club’s history in a Europa League match without a shot on goal. This negative record currently fits in well with the team’s condition.

In seven league games there were only two threes, both at home. Away, United have been waiting for a win for ten matches. In the last four competitive games, it was also enough for the regular season for no threesome. In the past week United could also progress in the League Cup at home against League One club Rochdale only after penalties.

Manchester United won at least 1-0 at home to Astana on Matchday 1, giving them four points in Group L. Coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer explained the uninspired performance of his players in Alkmaar partly with the artificial turf. In addition, he spoke exclusively of a good performance of his players and lamented a missed penalty.

For many experts, Manchester United is only a mediocre team. Players like Romelu Lukaku, Alexis Sanchez and Ander Herrera have left the club and have not been replaced yet. The newcomers put a lot of emphasis on young British talent this summer, but six out of eleven in the opening fixture against Alkmaar were over 25 years old.

After all, David de Gea remained 0-0 in the Europa League for the first time in an away game since February without conceding. In the offensive, the “Red Devils” come but only to nine goals in seven league games. Four of them were scored on Matchday 1 against Chelsea. Eric Bailly, Timothy Fosu-Mensah, Paul Pogba, Jesse Lingard and Phil Jones are injured. The deployment of Anthony Martial is still questionable.
