"The arrival of Michael Carrick has transformed United's fortunes, taking 19 points from a possible 21 across the interim head coach's seven games to surge up the Premier League table. They start in third with a place in next season's Champions League firmly in their sights."
"Thirteenth-placed Newcastle have won one of their last seven league games and need to start picking up points quickly if they want to play European football next season."
"Newcastle have won their last three home Premier League matches against United, which is as many as they recorded in their previous 18 combined. The Magpies last had a longer home league winning run against the Red Devils between 1915 and 1931."
Manchester United travels to Newcastle on Wednesday evening in a Premier League fixture that carries significant implications for both clubs' seasons.
