Manchester United’s coronavirus-induced hiatus end with the Red Devils in action against relegation-threatened Newcastle United. They are currently languishing at seventh in the points table with Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal gaining ground in the race for the Champions League places. Ralf Rangnick knows his team needs to keep the winning momentum going if they are to finish in the top four and save United’s campaign. Newcastle United come into the match on the back of a three-game losing streak. The new ownership has got off to a poor start and Magpies will need to invest heavily in January in order to reverse the poor form.
