Latest team news for Newcastle vs MU
Newcastle will be without defender Lewis Hall due to a foot injury. Centre-backs Sven Botman and Jamaal Lascelles are also unavailable due to knee injuries. Midfielder Joe Willock is still recovering from a concussion that caused him to miss the Leicester game.
Assistant manager Jason Tindall said Newcastle will wait until closer to match time to decide on Anthony Gordon's availability, as he is racing against time to recover from a groin injury. Meanwhile, Alexander Isak, although not fully fit, is expected to be fit enough to start.
For Manchester United, Lisandro Martinez (knee), Jonny Evans (muscle), Ayden Heaven (ankle), Amad Diallo (ankle), and Toby Collyer (leg) remain absent.
Defender Matthijs de Ligt is likely to miss his third consecutive game due to an injury sustained in the defeat to Nottingham Forest earlier this month.
Manager Ruben Amorim may rotate the squad to conserve energy for the second leg against Lyon. Victor Lindelof, Mason Mount, and Zirkzee are among the players who could be given a starting opportunity. He might also consider resting Onana and giving the starting chance to second-choice goalkeeper Altay Bayindir – who has never played in the Premier League.

Latest football match prediction: Newcastle vs MU
Newcastle entered Sunday's match in high spirits after a run of four consecutive wins in all competitions. They began with a narrow victory over West Ham in the Premier League, followed by a 2-1 win over Liverpool at Wembley to claim the League Cup – their first domestic trophy in 70 years.
Returning to the Premier League, Newcastle continued their consistent form with a 2-1 victory over Brentford and then an easy 3-0 win away at Leicester City – a team almost certainly relegated. Jacob Murphy scored an early brace, before Harvey Barnes scored against his former club, sealing the win in the first half.
That victory propelled Eddie Howe's side to fifth place, before being overtaken by Man City after their win against Crystal Palace. However, the fact that the Premier League has just been awarded an additional Champions League spot – thanks to Arsenal's victory over Real Madrid – gives Newcastle a strong chance of returning to the competition for the second time in three seasons.
Despite having a game in hand compared to their rivals, Newcastle understand they cannot afford to be complacent in their remaining eight matches. And having won four of their last five encounters with Man United, they are confident of securing all three points at home.
In fact, if Newcastle beat the Red Devils again, they will complete a double victory against Man United in the Premier League for the first time since 1931, after having already won 2-0 at Old Trafford in the first leg last December.
Meanwhile, Manchester United now considers the Europa League their top priority, as it is their only way to qualify for European competition in the 2025-26 season.
In the first leg of the quarter-finals in France on Thursday, Manchester United seemed poised to win against Lyon despite goalkeeper Onana's mistake leading to Thiago Almada's opening goal. Leny Yoro equalized before Joshua Zirkzee put United 2-1 up in the 88th minute. But another error from Onana in injury time allowed Rayan Cherki to equalize, leaving the match decided for the second leg.
Not only did they draw with Lyon, but it was also Manchester United's third consecutive game without a win since their 3-0 victory over Leicester before the international break.
Currently, Manchester United only have one game left to play to improve their position. They are in 13th place with 10 wins, 8 draws, and 13 losses after 31 rounds – risking finishing the season in the worst position in the club's Premier League history.
If they don't win all seven remaining matches, they also won't be able to reach their previous lowest points total (58 points). Even so far, they haven't won two consecutive Premier League matches this season.
Man United will travel to St James' Park hoping for their first win there since October 2020, while also avoiding a run of two consecutive home wins against Newcastle – something that hasn't happened in 55 years.
