Three pundits give Newcastle vs Manchester United score predictions

Manchester United will be looking to return with a victory when they face Newcastle in the Premier League in their first match back after the international break.

Erik ten Hag's side progressed to the FA Cup semi-finals with a victory over Fulham in their last game before the break, having also secured their spot in the Europa League quarter-finals after overcoming Real Betis. The Reds won four of their six matches in March, having lost to Liverpool and drawn with Southampton.

United drew 0-0 with Saints on March 12, with Casemiro being sent off in the goalless draw. The Brazilian midfielder will miss the next three domestic matches having already served one game of his four-match ban. Newcastle, meanwhile, currently sit fifth in the Premier League table, two points behind Tottenham in fourth.
