Newcastle United vs.Manchester United Live

English Premiere league Live


The English Premier League football match between Newcastle United (11th) and Manchester United (1st) kicks off on 19 April 2011. Newcastle United has played 16 English Premier League matches this season on St James Park. On home ground Newcastle United has won 5, drawn 6 and lost 5 matches. This ranks the Magpies 17th in home team performance in the English Premier League.

Manchester United has played 16 English Premier League matches this season away from home. On away ground Manchester United has won 5, drawn 8 and lost 3 matches. This ranks the Red Devils 4th in away team performance in the English Premier League. Newcastle meets Manchester United on St. James Park on Tuesday.

The Magpies are taking the 10th position in the table at the moment with 39 points from 32 matches. Their home record reads W5 D6 L5, scoring 36 goals in those games and conceding 23. Newcastle won 3 of the last 10 home games, losing 2 of the remaining and drawing 5. Their most recent game against Wolverhampton was a success with 4:1.

Manchester United is the current leader of the table, having 69 points in 32 matches. After Arsenal and Liverpool ended 1:1, the difference between the Gunners and United is now 6 points, and 8 points with the 3rd Chelsea. United’s away record reads W5 D8 L3, scoring 28 goals in those games, and conceding 23. What stands out here are the incredible amount of draw games that Manchester has recorded away from Old Trafford. With such a comfortable lead to the second and the third, the Red Devils can afford perhaps a couple of draws, but a loss will be crucial.

Newcastle is 6 points away from the 18th team that’s in the danger zone, but with a game less, the team has nothing to worry about. Since Andy Carroll took off for Liverpool, seems like the Magpies have had trouble winning as they have won only 4 games in 2011.

Against United on St. James Park the team has a record of W3 D4 L9. All three victories for Newcastle has been from 1996 to 2001. Since then 1 draw and 6 losses.
