Following a below-par display at Liverpool, a hard-fought 1-1 draw at Watford will have gone someway to restoring confidence ahead of one of the biggest games of the season.

Although there's always a sense of disappointment conceding a late equaliser, on the balance of play the point from Vicarage Road was fair on both teams.

It'll be a tough ask against a reinvigorated Man United side, reflected in the 9/2 you can get on us to win with our official betting partner, Coral.

The match between the two sides in October saw the Magpies lead 2-0 after 70 minutes at Old Trafford, only for Man United to come back and snatch a 90th minute winner.

Can Newcastle give them a taste of their own medicine? 3-2 Newcastle pays 40/1.

With Man United among the goals, back Newcastle to win and both teams to score at 8/1, or Man Utd winning at HT and Newcastle at FT pays a tempting 50/1 – that outcome would make for a happy new year indeed!
