2 Best Prop Bets for Man United vs Newcastle

1. Newcastle to Win (+150)

On Dec. 7, Newcastle fell to a 4-2 defeat at Brentford. It was the fourth straight match where they failed to win, the fifth straight match where they failed to keep a clean sheet and the third match in four where they conceded 2+ goals.

Since then, it’s been a complete 180 for Eddie Howe’s side. Per Man United vs Newcastle stats, the Magpies have scored 11 goals, conceded zero and won three in a row in the Premier League. They also avenged a defeat to Brentford by beating them 3-1 in the EFL Cup. Newcastle have moved into fifth place and will be looking to close out 2024 with another victory.

As for Manchester United, things couldn’t be going worse for new manager Rúben Amorim. They sit 14th in the table, eight points above the relegation zone, and they’ve lost their last three matches to Tottenham, Bournemouth and Wolves.

To add salt to the wound, they will be without captain Bruno Fernandes, who saw red after the restart against Wolves. Newcastle have won three of their last four matches vs. United, and we’re expecting that trend to continue in our soccer picks and parlays.
