S.P.Read Esq: Newcastle v Man U
Our daily columnist and pundit S.P. Read Esq. looks ahead to the Premier League game on Wednesday (7.45pm, LIVE BT SPORT) between NEWCASTLE v MAN U and finds the best opportunities available on Star Spreads, the home of sports spread betting.
The toughest game for punters tonight is arguably the live one at St James’ Park where Newcastle take on Man U.
Tough, because backing Man U at a shade of odds-on the fixed odds doesn’t make much sense.
Man U are getting results, their fourth placed in the table tells you that, but there still seems to be vulnerability from them away from home. They have won just three away league games this term.
Their last four away games have been:
Feb Swansea 2 Man Utd 1
Feb Preston 1 Man Utd 3 (FA CUP)
Feb West Ham 1 Man Utd 1
Jan Cambridge 0 Man Utd 0 (FA CUP)
Newcastle are without Massadio Haidara because of a knee injury and Remy Cabella and Jack Colback are also out.
Man U manager Louis van Gaal has reported that Michael Carrick lacks sufficient match fitness to start following his recovery from a calf injury. Van Gaal will get the services of both Phil Jones and Luke Shaw back tonight.
The last two away games for Man U at Newcastle have brought about an aggregate 7-0 success !
