Man Utd v Newcastle
-
Manchester United and Newcastle will both be looking to get back on track following a disappointing couple of weeks in The Premiership.
Manchester United
Gabriel Heinze is set to continue at left back following his recent return from injury, while Nemanja Vidic could be given the nod once again at centre back.
Both Ryan Giggs (hamstring) and Park Ji-sung (ankle) are still out, while Alan Smith still has some way to go before he can be considered for a starting spot.
Newcastle
Newcastle travel to Manchester in the knowledge that they have not won a league game at Old Trafford since 1972.
Titus Bramble and Celestine Babayaro are both suspended for the clash, but Steven Taylor has recovered from a foot injury and will play. Craig Moore is likely to be recalled as well. Damien Duff and Scott Parker are likely to start, especially with Nolberto Solano struggling with a hamstring injury. Kieron Dyer is still out.

That's a fair comment but then again, as they say, the ball is round. Anything can happen... many people expected Chelsea to win last night too especially at home against Villa.Originally posted by a-Lost-9uY:man U will win this game

Hopefully we get a good match from this.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's double moved Manchester United to the top of the Premiership table on goal difference.
Throughout the game Manchester United's attacking play was a rich mixture of individual trickery and fluid passing movements, with Ronaldo invariably involved.
Newcastle deployed five men in midfield in a bid to stifle Manchester United, but the tactic had no effect, as the home side laid siege to the visitors' goal.
Final score : Man Utd 2-0 Newcastle -
