Team Analysis
The rematch of last year's League Cup final finds Manchester United hosting Newcastle at Old Trafford. The Magpies had a strong start to their League Cup journey, defeating the other Manchester side, Man City, 1-0 at St. James' Park. Nonetheless, their morale might suffer due to several injuries and sidelined players affecting the team's performance. They've won merely one game out of the last three in all competitions and have only managed to keep one clean sheet.
Head-to-Head
Manchester United has historically been dominant when facing Newcastle, boasting 48 wins, 22 draws, and losing only 8 out of the 78 confrontations held at Old Trafford. Although they pulled off a victory against Newcastle in the previous season's League Cup final (2-0), their luck ran out in the past three Premier League matches against the Magpies. Moreover, the last four matchups between the two teams have seen fewer than three goals each time.
Odds Analysis
Muscle strains and injuries have made things tough for Newcastle, while Manchester United's desire to recover from the city derby loss could be a potent motivator. It's fair to make United the primary choice at 2.20 odds. Considering that none of the last four matches against these opposing teams scored three or more goals, a prediction of Under 2.5 goals in Full Time is also a sensible one, with odds standing at 1.90. There are promising signs for a United victory, but remember that the game can always bring surprises.
