Manchester United vs Newcastle live stream and match preview
Looking for a Manchester United vs Newcastle live stream? We've got you covered.
Manchester United will be hoping to continue their impressive recent form when Newcastle United visit Old Trafford on Sunday, but the Magpies are on a strong run of their own.
United have picked up eight wins in their last 10 games and are looking for a fourth victory in a row in all competitions against Eddie Howe’s side.
The Red Devils needed a 90th-minute Scott McTominay goal to overcome Omonia Nicosia in the Europa League on Thursday, however.
Erik ten Hag's side are fifth in the standings, one point behind Chelsea. They trail leaders Arsenal by nine points, but have a game in hand.
Newcastle travel south on a high after their 5-1 thumping of Brentford last weekend.
It was the second big win in a row for the Tyneside club, following their 4-1 win at Fulham a week earlier.
Howe’s men are now unbeaten in four Premier League games and are aiming to leapfrog United at Old Trafford; they sit one point behind the Red Devils in sixth place.
Last season, United earned 4-1 win at Old Trafford in this fixture in September, Cristiano Ronaldo netting twice.
It was a different story at St. James’ Park in December, however, when the two sides played out a 1-1 draw.
Anthony Martial will be assessed after picking up a knock against Omonia, but Harry Maguire, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Donny van de Beek are injured and McTominay is suspended.
For Newcastle, star summer signing Alexander Isak is again expected to miss out through injury, while Jonjo Shelvey, Emil Krafth, Karl Darlow and Matt Ritchie remain sidelined.

VPN guide
Use a VPN to watch Premier League football from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for a round of Premier League fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch the action without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.
There are plenty of good-value options out there, and FourFourTwo currently recommends:
