Match Details
The match takes place at St James' Park. The exact date and kick-off time are confirmed closer to the fixture and may be subject to change for television. The full 2026-2027 fixture list was released in mid-June.
St James' Park
St James' Park has been Newcastle United's home since 1892, making it one of the oldest football grounds in England. Located in the heart of Newcastle city centre, the stadium holds approximately 52,300 supporters and provides one of the most intimidating atmospheres in English football. The passionate Geordie faithful create a cauldron of noise that makes St James' Park one of the toughest away trips in the Premier League.
Head-to-Head Record
Manchester United lead the all-time head-to-head with 92 victories from 182 meetings compared to Newcastle's 49 wins. In Premier League history, United have been dominant, winning 33 of their 61 encounters while Newcastle have managed 12 victories. The Magpies enjoyed a strong run against United in recent seasons, but the Red Devils ended it with a 1-0 win at Old Trafford on Boxing Day 2025 before Newcastle hit back with a dramatic 2-1 victory at St James' Park in March 2026. United have historically been tough to beat on their own patch in this fixture, losing just two of their last 40 home league games against Newcastle. Wayne Rooney is the leading goalscorer in this fixture with 13 goals, while Ruud van Nistelrooy, Andy Cole, and Paul Scholes all managed 11.
Last Meeting: Newcastle United 2-1 Manchester United (St James' Park)
The most recent meeting at St James' Park, in March 2026, produced a dramatic 2-1 win for Newcastle. Anthony Gordon put the home side ahead from the penalty spot in first-half stoppage time, only for Casemiro to level moments later in a frantic end to the half that also saw Newcastle's Jacob Ramsey sent off for a second bookable offence. Reduced to ten men, Newcastle held firm before substitute William Osula struck a spectacular winner in the 90th minute, inflicting a first defeat on Michael Carrick since he had taken charge of United. Earlier in the season, United had beaten Newcastle 1-0 at Old Trafford on Boxing Day, Patrick Dorgu with the only goal.
Newcastle United
Eddie Howe remains in charge at Newcastle following a challenging 2025-26 campaign, which featured a Champions League run that ended in the round of 16 and an inconsistent league season. Key players such as Bruno Guimarães and Anthony Gordon continue to provide quality, and the Magpies' home form at St James' Park remains a major strength. Having ended a long wait for silverware with the 2024-25 League Cup, Newcastle will be determined to bounce back and climb back towards the European places.
Manchester United
Michael Carrick has overseen a strong recovery at Manchester United, steadying the club following Ruben Amorim's departure and guiding them to a third-place finish and a return to the Champions League in 2025-26. The squad features exciting talent including Benjamin Sesko, Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo, while Bruno Fernandes remains a key figure. With Carrick now installed on a permanent basis, United will look to build on their progress and re-establish themselves among the top sides.
