We simulated Manchester United vs Newcastle to get a Premier League score prediction

Manchester United grace the Old Trafford pitch for the final time this season later tonight where three points are vital against Newcastle United.

After their calamitous 4-0 defeat to Crystal Palace last week, United fell to a 1-0 loss to title-chasers Arsenal, with a lapse in concentration from Casemiro helping the Gunners grab the only goal of the game to keep up their Premier League title hunt. The loss means Erik ten Hag's side have won just one of their last nine games across all competitions, and failure to beat Newcastle tonight could see United miss out on a top-seven finish if results don't go their way elsewhere.

The Magpies are the fourth-highest scorers in the league this season, and Ten Hag will be hoping his side aren't as leaky at the back as the Old Trafford roof when they welcome Eddie Howe's side tonight. Since beating Newcastle 2-0 in last season's Carabao Cup final, United have lost their last three games against the Magpies in all competitions, conceding six and scoring zero in that time.

Bruno Fernandes could return for Ten Hag's side after missing the Arsenal clash, hopefully adding some much-needed creativity to United's attack. Willy Kambwala could also return to the starting XI after coming off the bench against Arsenal following a spell on the sidelines.

So, could United keep up their hunt for European football next season? Let's take a look.
