Newcastle United v Manchester United Premier League Betting Tips 13/04/2025

Newcastle will continue their push for a top-four spot in the Premier League on Sunday as the Toon welcomes Manchester United to St James’ Park, so here’s our Newcastle United v Manchester United Premier League Betting Tips. The Magpies have hit massive highs in the last month after cinching the |EFL Cup title and reigniting their Champions League hopes for next season. They face a steadily improving Man United side this weekend, who have lost very few recent games. You can tune in to watch Newcastle vs Man United on Sky Sports. Kick-off for this fixture is at 4:30 p.m.

Form & Team News

Newcastle have kicked into gear throughout March and February, winning their previous four. The Toon started this upturn in form with a 1-0 win at West Ham before sealing their first silverware since 1969 with a 2-1 EFL Cup final triumph over Liverpool. Eddie Howe’s side has kept the good times rolling recently after defeating Brentford 2-1 and Leicester 3-0 since returning from the international break. Man United are still in the Premier League’s bottom half in 13th spot. However, Ruben Amorim’s team have become harder to beat recently, losing one league game in their previous six. That sole defeat came at Nottingham Forest (1-0) in early March. The Red Devils drew their next two games, 0-0 at home against Man City and 2-2 at Lyon in the Europa League. 

The Toon have a few injury concerns, with defensive trio Jamaal Lascelles, Sven Botman and Lewis Hall out. Midfielder Joe Willock is also unavailable here due to injury. Man United have several first-team players out of action. Ayden Heaven, Jonny Evans, Lisandro Martínez, Amad Diallo, Toby Collyer and Matthijs de Ligt remain sidelined with injury issues.

Match Winner Bet

The bookmakers have identified one clear favourite for the Newcastle vs Man United encounter on Sunday. United are currently the big underdogs in the pre-match winner market, and Paddy Power have 4/1 odds for an away victory. The Red Devils have struggled on the road recently, with just one win in their previous six away games, so the long odds seem justified here. Amorim’s side have drawn a lot recently, and a stalemate could be a better option on Sunday. United have seen four draws in their last seven in all competitions, and AK Bets have 10/3 odds for a St James’ stalemate. Newcastle are the team of the moment, though, and the Toon certainly has momentum ahead of this clash. Howe’s side have won four in a row and sealed victory in four of their last five head-to-heads against United. A Newcastle win looks like the best pick on Sunday, and William Hill has decent odds for a home triumph at 4/6. 

Over/Under Goals Betting

We can also see this Newcastle vs Manchester United clash being relatively cagey. Newcastle’s results have been relatively low-scoring lately, with their previous six in all competitions ending with under 3.5 goals. United have also tightened up recently, leading to lower scoring clashes. The Manchester outfit have seen under 3.5 goals in six of their last eight in all competitions. Recent head-to-heads also suggest this one could have produce few goals. Seven of the previous eight games between Newcastle and United have ended with under 3.5 goals. If you’re eyeing a potential bankroll builder this weekend, under 3.5 in the Newcastle vs Manchester United fixture could be a solid bet as Sky Bet are offering 1/2 odds.

Anytime Goalscorer Bets

In terms of goalscorers, very few Man United players stand out, as the Red Devils’ recent scorers have varied a lot. One player who struck in the 2-2 draw at Lyon on Thursday was Joshua Zirkzee and the Dutch forward has now scored twice in his last three away matches. At 4/1, offered by Ladbrokes, a Zirkzee anytime strike could be a decent outsider bet at St James’ Park. Our main goalscorer pick in the Newcastle vs Man United fixture is in-form Alexander Isak. The Swedish international has scored 20 goals in 27 appearances this season and is the Premier League’s third-highest scorer for the campaign. Isak has also scored in each of his last three matches at St James’ Park, and 10 of his goals have come at home this season. The Toon’s striker is a serious goal scoring force, and he is worth backing at evens this weekend, provided by Unibet.
