Match Prediction-West Ham vs Southampton Betting Tips and Match Prediction
At the City Ground, a delicate Emmanuel Dennis chip was in vain as Alexander Isak’s brace kept Newcastle within striking distance of Tottenham, who are only two points ahead of Howe’s side in fourth place despite having played two more games.
Newcastle have gone from a team that kept clean sheets for fun to one that has conceded in their last eight matches in all competitions. They are no longer the defensive force that they were earlier in the season, and only two of their last five Premier League home games have ended in victory. Only Liverpool have beaten Howe’s men on their own turf this season, and even then, the 10 men gave the Reds a run for their money, so Man United must keep their wits about them against a Magpies side driven by vengeance.

Man United played just twice in the Premier League in March, losing 7-0 to Liverpool and drawing 0-0 with Southampton, leaving them in safe position on the final podium spot and one point ahead of Tottenham, who have played two more games. Dreams of a quadruple are undoubtedly too ambitious for Man United.
Newcastle’s defence has lost some of its lustre, but Man United has the fourth-worst road defence this season, allowing 27 goals, which is only better than Bournemouth (38), Nottingham Forest (32) and Leicester City (30). Newcastle players and fans cried as Manchester United ended their six-year trophy drought with a 2-0 win in the EFL Cup final in February. The Magpies are winless in their last six Premier League meetings with their Manchester counterparts, but they came away with a creditable point in a goalless stalemate back in October.

Although Man United easily defeated Newcastle at Wembley, lightning shouldn’t strike twice for Howe’s Champions League contenders because Casemiro is out and there is a clear lack of depth in the middle of the field. A closely fought draw may be in the cards, a result that neither manager will be particularly happy with because the Magpies no longer frequently lose in front of their own supporters.
Newcastle United 1-0 Manchester United, predicted by us.
