Optimism among United fans quickly faded. It definitely appeared after Ruben Amorim took over. But did United sing "the old song with a new voice"? It may seem so, as they are currently on a three-game losing streak. In the last two of them, they didn't even score a goal. They also lost their last two home games - 0:3 to Bournemouth and 2:3 to Nottingham. Amorim continues to provoke discussions by excluding Rashford from the squad, who seems to be taking a new path soon. Now captain Bruno Fernandes is also punished, receiving a red card in the last match.
At the same time, Newcastle is on the rise and climbed to fifth place in the table. They have won their last four matches in all competitions, scoring a total of 14 goals. Yes, three of these matches were at home. They won 4:0 against Ipswich in their last visit, but this season they have not won two more times in a row as guests, and since 2013 they have not won an away game at "Old Trafford" in a Premier League match.
Prediction: 1X double chance, both teams to scoreEven under Ten Hag, United did not suffer three consecutive losses this season. I don't think they will concede a fourth consecutive defeat, as well as a third consecutive one at home. Newcastle, on the other hand, doesn't seem to reach a fifth consecutive win, but goals definitely seem likely - in both nets.
