Manchester United vs Newcastle Preview
In each of the last two meetings between Manchester United and Newcastle, both have been draws. The two evenly matched sides will lock horns at Wembley this weekend in search of the Carabao Cup trophy.
On their road to the final, Manchester United defeated:
- Third round: 4-2 vs Aston Villa
- Fourth round: 2-0 vs Burnley
- Quarter-final: 3-0 vs Charlton Athletic
- Semi-final: 5-0 (aggregate) vs Nottingham Forest
Compared to the Geordies’ run of:
- Second round: 2-1 vs Tranmere Rovers
- Third round: 0-0 vs Crystal Palace (3-2 on penalties)
- Fourth round: 1-0 vs Bournemouth
- Semi-final: 3-1 (aggregate) vs Southampton
Newcastle have failed to win in their last three and would’ve hoped to enter the occasion on better form, drawing against West Ham and Bournemouth before last Saturday’s 2-0 loss to Liverpool.
Manchester United are carrying serious momentum after beating Barcelona 4-3 on aggregate to reach the Europa League round of 16 and continue Erik ten Hag’s nine-game unbeaten streak.
Eight points separate the two sides in the Premier League table, but the Magpies have a game in hand. Newcastle also have the best defensive record in the league, conceding just 15 goals in 23 games this season.

Manchester United vs Newcastle Team News
Erik ten Hag has confirmed that alongside Christian Eriksen and Donny van de Beek, Anthony Martial will also miss Sunday’s final through injury.
It’s certainly possible that the Dutchman will opt to start Antony on the right-hand side after his terrific showing against Barcelona in the Europa League earlier this week and drop Wout Weghorst to the bench.
Marcus Rashford was pictured limping out of Old Trafford on Thursday night and ten Hag is uncertain on the 25-year-old’s availability for Sunday.
Newcastle goalkeeper Nick Pope is suspended after receiving a straight red card for handling the ball outside the area, with a rare start lined up for former Liverpool stopper Loris Karius.
Martin Dubravka and Anthony Gordon are both cup-tied and will not feature, but Bruno Guimaraes will return after a three-game domestic suspension after being shown a straight red in the semi-final second leg against Southampton.
Manchester United vs Newcastle Confirmed Lineups
Confirmed Manchester United lineup:
