Expert Betting Tips
The last three head-to-head encounters have been very competitive. In the first round of the current EPL campaign, the teams were not happy with the goals. In the English League Cup final, MU scored two unanswered goals against the Magpies and won the trophy. Eddie Howe's charges intend to take revenge. Still, it will be difficult. Newcastle is considered the game's favor, but even considering the absence of Casemiro, MU is severely underestimated. We expect the home team to fail to beat the Devils for the eighth time in a row, and the encounter will be a low-scoring.
