Manchester United return to action on the Premier League TV schedule 16 days after their last match when they take on Newcastle this Monday night.

United have seen two games called off due to COVID outbreaks, offering them a chance to rest and recover going into a busy Christmas period.

Ralf Rangnick will be pleased with early steps taken by his team under his stewardship and will expect another positive result to keep the positive mood flowing.

Newcastle remain in a dire predicament at the bottom of the Premier League table. They sit in 19th with 10 points from 18 games, one game more than rock-bottom Norwich and three games more than Burnley just above them.

Eddie Howe’s men were defeated 3-1 and 4-0 by Liverpool and Manchester City respectively last week and he will hope to avoid a third straight heavy defeat to superior opposition here.

Our prediction: Newcastle v Man Utd

United have no excuses here. They’ve had time to rest, time to prepare, time to work on their game over the last couple of weeks, while Newcastle will be begging for some respite.

Cristiano Ronaldo will be inevitably keen to hit the ground running on Tyneside with the likes of Arsenal and Tottenham rising up around United during their pause.

Rangnick won’t expect wonders so soon into his reign, but he will be delighted with clean, solid victories over sides his men are expected to beat.

Our prediction: Newcastle 0-2 Man Utd (7/1 at bet365)
