Is Newcastle vs Man Utd on TV? Kick-off time, channel and live stream details

Manchester United are back in action on Sunday when they take on top four rivals Newcastle United.

The Red Devils are looking good for a top four spot, but with the Magpies just three points worse off in fifth place, they know they will lose all comfort if they lose at St James’ Park.

What has Eddie Howe said?

Eddie Howe has said ahead of this one: “I think the games, at this stage, get bigger and bigger because you’re running out of opportunities to correct yourself if you make a mistake. We’re well aware of the importance of this game that we’re back at home in front of our supporters.

“Our last result (at St. James’ Park) was a really positive one as well so we’re looking forward to playing again. It’s been a long two weeks for us and we’re keen to play again quite quickly. We feel we’ve prepared as well as we can do for this game and the team is ready.”

What has Erik ten Hag said?

Erik ten Hag spoke about Newcastle’s alleged time-wasting during his pre-match press conference, saying: “Concern, we know they delay, yeah. It’s something that is what the refereeing doesn’t want, they want to have tempo in the game, that is the aim of the PL, so they have to be consistent to let the game go, so do and act what the policy is.

“It’s about us, like we did in the two previous games, it’s about us, as every game, we want to dictate, to control the game but we play against a good opponent, we’re aware of that. They’ve had a great season with their manager, way of play. It’s a team that is really hard to beat. We are looking forward to the challenge and the evidence is we can beat them.”
