• Date: Sunday 13th of April 2025

• Time: 16:30 pm BST

• Where To Watch: Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League

Many football fans will argue that this match is a clash of two teams who are trending in opposite directions. Newcastle United have continued to see success in their Premier League progression after being purchased by the Sovereign Wealth Fund of Saudi Arabia in 2021. Adversely, Manchester United have struggled in the 2024/25 Premier League and unless they start registering points soon, they are on track for the club’s worst performance ever in the competition.

The Red side of Manchester will have a tough task on their hands as they travel to St. James Park, although they did show a few promising signs in their 0 – 0 draw to Manchester City last weekend.

On this page, we share an overview of the upcoming match between Newcastle and Man Utd, looking at the head-to-head record of both teams alongside the predicted line ups. You can also find our Premier League betting tips for this encounter!

Newcastle United vs Manchester United: Predicted Line Ups

Of course, Newcastle United will play the strongest available squad in their quest for a top 4 finish in the Premier League. Jamaal Lascelles is likely out for the rest of the season, with Sven Botman and Lewis Hall both being ruled out for this game, too.

• Predicted Newcastle United Line Up: Pope, Krafth, Schar, Burn, Livramento, Guimaraes, Tonali, Willok, Murphy, Wilson, Barnes.

For Manchester United, they will be without Lisandro Martinez for the rest of the season, with the Argentine unlikely to play a game in 2025. Kobbie Mainoo and Matthijs de Ligt are also being monitored closely as they look to return to full fitness.

Newcastle United vs Manchester United Betting Tips

• Betting Tip 1: Newcastle United To Win

Our first pick for this clash is that Newcastle United will win, with a few factors influencing this. First up is that Newcastle simply have more to play for, as they aim to challenge for Champions League football next season. They are just 3 points off Chelsea in fourth place and although a win won’t see them leapfrog the Blues, it gives the Magpies a strong foundation to build on in the remaining few games of the season.

Newcastle also have slightly better form, even though Manchester United have started to find their feet again and when comparing players, they have a much stronger squad. Alexander Isak is having a particularly strong season, sitting third in the 2024/25 top Premier League goal scorer list at the time of writing, although he is still being nursed back to full fitness.

Last but not least, Newcastle have a solid home record this season, winning 8, drawing 2, and losing 4 at St. James Park.

• Betting Tip 2: Under 2.5 Goals

The second Premier League betting tip we have for the game between Newcastle United and Manchester United is that under 2.5 goals will be scored in the clash. In six of the last eight meetings between the two teams, this bet has been a successful one, with Manchester United in particular finding it harder to score than in previous seasons.

It’s also worth mentioning that five of Manchester United’s last seven matches have ended under the 2.5 goals mark, with their last result being a 0 – 0 draw against Manchester City, a game in which neither team looked particularly dangerous when on the attack.
