MUN Vs NEW Dream11 Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Newcastle United look to capitalise on a struggling Manchester United side come today’s encounter.
They defeated Tottenham and Manchester City only to follow it up with a draw to Everton and a defeat to Watford in their bygone encounter. The recent set of events revolving around Manchester United have perfectly embodied the predicament which this precarious side has been shrouded in the ongoing edition of the Premier League, one which has refrained the side from making massive strides in the points tally.
Losing 2-0 to a Watford side the last time around was perhaps the biggest testament to the kind of campaign Manchester United have endured this season. The side were putdown by a team which is currently placed in the trenches of the league standings, a side for which the win was only the second one in 18 encounters.
It’s exactly this flummoxed form which Newcastle United will be looking to capitalise on when the two sides go at loggerheads come today’s encounter. Newcastle United are coming into this one with a 1-0 win against Crystal Palace the last time around, a result which saw the side move right below Manchester United to ninth place with both the sides level on 25 points ahead of today’s impending encounter.

MUN Vs NEW Dream11 Goal-Keeper
A major reason for Newcastle United coming out unblemished from their foregone encounter and imbedding in place a cleansheet was their goal-keeper Martin Dubravka. The goal-keeper is someone who has in him an astute skill set at parrying away shots to see us move in for him for the day.
MUN Vs NEW Dream11 Defenders
The likelihood of this being a 0-0 is extremely realistic with both the sides making for haywire attacking units. Also, with Newcastle United looking to always come across as a stern and stiff test against superior sides with a packed defence, one which keeps itself compact and sound, the visiting side can easily curb Manchester United’s attacking soiree.
It sees us bring in Jetro Willems from the side, someone who has scored twice as well from the unit while from Manchester United we are getting in trio of picks. They come in the form of Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Hary Maguire and Victor Lindelof, all three coming into our setup owing to Newcastle United’s limited movement while going forward today.
MUN Vs NEW Dream11 Midfielders(We have replaced Daniel James with A Pereira in our Dream11 team after lineups were announced)
In a despondent season for Manchester United, one good news which has emerged from the unit is the emergence of David James this season. The player has come in and adjusted extremely quickly to his side, acclimatising himself with not only his counterparts and the gameplan but a very astute understanding of what’s required of him as a player.
Scott McTominay will partner him up for the contest while from Newcastle United we are venturing in with Miguel Almiron, a player who’ll rejoice at the unstable identity of the Manchester United defence up infront of him.
MUN vs NEW Dream11 Strikers(We brought in Mason Greenwood into our Dream11 Team after lineups were announced)
We had to begin this docket with the selection of Manchester United’s leading goal scorer with the 11 goals in the league, Marcus Rashford for this one. If anyone is going to be getting a goal for the side, he looks the likeliest to do so to make him an instant selection for us.
Elsewhere, from Newcastle United we have gone in with an indomitable and diminutive duo, one which comprises of Joelinton and Allan Saint-Maximin. As the league has transpired, this partnership has transcended into a lethal one for the side with both the players clicking together to make things extremely jittery for position defence.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Dubravka is going to be captaining our side out for this one whilst Aaron Wan-Bissaka is our vice-captain.
