A place in the UEFA Europa Conference League is up for grabs as the Premier League season enters the final stretch.
Manchester United hosts Newcastle on Wednesday, May 15 at Old Trafford in Stretford, England. If the season ended today, Newcastle would qualify for the Europa Conference League with 57 points and the tiebreaker over Chelsea, but by losing just three points, Man United has a chance to overtake both Chelsea and Newcastle with a strong end to the season. Interestingly, Chelsea will be playing at the same time as Man United and Newcastle, so it could make for some interesting back-and-forth moments as fans and players keep an eye on either game.
However, Man United are stuck finishing the season. Erik ten Hag’s side have won just once in his team’s last eight league games dating back to mid-March. The injury crisis at Old Trafford continues to plague the club, and the centre-back duo Jonny Evans and Casemiro have not provided any solution. Wednesday’s match could be an opportunity for Ten Hag to make some changes to find three key points.
Newcastle have also dealt with a host of injuries this year, including a pair of ACL tears to centre-backs Jamaal Lascelles and Sven Botman. But finishing with a place in Europe, after a difficult first half of the season, will bring some relief to the club and its fans.

Man United vs Newcastle Prediction
Man United and Newcastle have both battled injuries this season, but for Newcastle to get some of their stars back at this stage of the season is a good sign. Add to that the team is playing with confidence after wins over relegated teams Sheffield United and Burnley, and Newcastle should do so away from home.
Prediction: Newcastle 2-1 Manchester United
