Latest Manchester United news and gossip as Paul Merson makes his prediction for United's Premier League clash against Newcastle at Old Trafford
United host Newcastle this evening in their final home fixture of the campaign. The Reds go into the game on the back of a 1-0 defeat to Arsenal at the weekend where they lost further ground in the race for European qualification.
Newcastle are three points ahead of United in sixth, while Chelsea are seventh and also battling to qualify for Europe. And the Reds have been predicted to suffer another what would be a 15th top-flight defeat of the campaign.READ MORE: United manager Erik ten Hag addresses Rasmus Hojlund's form “Arsenal played in second gear against Man United last weekend.

"It's quite sad but I'm not sure when they'll be back as teams around them are just continuing to get better and better. I know there are cycles but it doesn't look good for Manchester United and I think they don't stand a chance of making it into the top four next season.
