Erik ten Hag press conference live Manchester United injury updates and team news vs Newcastle

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag will address the media this lunchtime to look ahead to Wednesday night's crunch Premier League encounter with Newcastle United at Old Trafford.

United will be targeting a much-needed three points against the Magpies after Sunday's 1-0 defeat to Arsenal marked a third game without a victory. It also marked a second successive defeat in which the Reds have failed to score.

Currently three points behind Newcastle in the table, United know the magnitude of scooping all three points to keep their hopes of securing Europa League qualification via their league position alive.

The Reds, of course, have already been beaten twice by Newcastle this season, losing 1-0 in the Premier League in December and 3-0 in the League Cup in November. Ten Hag will take questions from the media on a range of topics and we will bring you everything he has to say.
