Manchester United 8/13 to beat Newcastle in Sunday’s Premier League game

Competition: Premier League

Market: Manchester United to beat Newcastle

Odds: 8/13 @ Bet365

The Premier League continues this weekend with yet another enthralling rounds of games that will surely only see more excitement. The teams in both the top and bottom half of the table are separated by so few points that a single win can often see a side rise a number of places. With this in mind, Manchester United travel to face Newcastle on Sunday.

Newcastle have been struggling massively this season and they desperately need to win their next game or they could sink into the relegation zone by the end of the weekend. After 26 games they have won six, drawn seven and lost 13, scoring 24 times and conceding 36 goals. In their last five they have won just one game, while they have drawn three and lost once, which has seen them onto 25 points. The Magpies are only a single point clear of the relegation zone and they need to start picking up more points or they will fall into deeper trouble.

Manchester United have been in fairly good form this season but they have still found themselves a long way behind Manchester City at the top. After 26 games they have won 17, drawn five and lost four, scoring 51 goals and conceding 18 times. In their last five they have managed to win four games, losing the other, which has seen them onto 56 points. While they are seven points clear of fifth-placed Tottenham, they are 13 points short of leaders Manchester City. If they are to keep up the pressure on their city-rivals then they must win this game.
