    The players are out - not long to go now!
  • PRVW
    Manchester United have, as expected, gone for a different approach after that Spurs embarrassment at Old Trafford. They bring in Lindelof for Bailly and also drop Pogba and Matic for Mac Tominay and Fred. Greenwood doesn't even make the squad and Dan James starts in his place. Magpies fans will be please to know that Harry Maguire keeps his place though at the heart of Ole's defence.
  • PRVW
    So, Newcastle only make one change from that emphatic Burnley win - Lascelles is in for Fabian Schar.
  • PRVW
    Manchester United: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw, Fred, McTominay, Mata, Fernandes, James, Rashford. Subs: Henderson, Bailly, Telles, Matic, Pogba, Van de Beek, Ighalo
