Premier League POTM: Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka WINS Player of Month…
Meanwhile, Newcastle have made no changes from the team that defeated Nottingham Forest in their previous match. As a result, Alexander Isak will continue to lead the line, with Callum Wilson relegated to the bench. Eddie Howe’s bench is reinforced by the return of Joelinton and Anthony Gordon, who have to sit out due to injuries, with Allan Saint-Maximin and Jacob Murphy beginning in attack.
The great news for Manchester United is that Marcus Rashford has been cleared to play against Newcastle this afternoon. Erik ten Hag has made just two changes from his team’s last appearance, an FA Cup quarter-final victory over Fulham.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Jadon Sancho make place for Diogo Dalot and Antony on the right flank. Anthony Martial, who hasn’t played in the Premier League since January 14, makes a welcome return to the bench.
Newcastle has had 11 shots overall compared to Man United’s two, but Joe Willock has wasted two excellent chances to put Newcastle ahead. The highlight of the half was without a doubt David de Gea’s incredible double save to stop Alexander Isak and Willock.

Newcastle will feel terrible about not taking the lead in that period. The magnificent double save by De Gea denied Eddie Howe’s team, but Joe Willock’s missed attempt from inside the area might prove costly. Despite the fact that both centre backs made crucial blocks and Antony occasionally appeared dangerous, United is fortunate to have survived the staff.
Willock puts Newcastle in front! This time, he is error-free. Isak executes a beautiful move to connect with Guimaraes, who then crosses for Willock to easily head the ball into an open net. With a well-earned leaf, the home team will move up to third position.
A sub, Callum Wilson, scores! Wilson rises to accurately head home Tripper’s excellent free kick from just in front of the corner flag. There was no one on the pitch who was able to mark the striker, so Ten Hag’s choice to remove his centre backs suddenly seems especially strange.
