With scrutiny ramping up on their manager, Manchester United welcomes Newcastle to Old Trafford on Wednesday in a Carabao Cup knockout fixture.
One of the biggest things they have going for them is their depth, especially at striker. While many clubs hope to have one center forward they can rely on, the Magpies have two—and we’re backing one of them to score for our best bet on Wednesday. Man United have had problems this season with teams that can progress the ball, both via dribbles and passing. Newcastle ranks in the top half of the league in both metrics, while the Red Devils have allowed the third-most progressive carries this season.
Neither team has been stellar defensively of late, as Newcastle’s only clean sheets in their last six matches came against Crystal Palace and Burnley.
