Charlie Nicholas makes prediction for Manchester United vs Newcastle clash

Sky Sports pundit Charlie Nicholas thinks Manchester United will beat Newcastle 2 - 0 in the upcoming Premier League match. The Red Devils are sitting on the 8th place of the league table having 25 points totally. They faced an embarrassing loss to Watford, that celebrated their second win of the season. Though Paul Pogba returned to the game, it didn't help the club get their winning three points out of the match. Now, as United are preparing for their next league fixture, Charlie Nicholas has predicted their win, though pointing out the club's minuses. He said: "How many times do I have to say this about Steve Bruce? They are in a sensational position and are probably just three wins away from safety. Their defence is solid, and it has been extraordinary what he has done here. Manchester United were shocking at Watford - they have not turned the corner at all. The Scott McTominay and Fred partnership will not improve at all. They were celebrating that Paul Pogba is back, saying United played better when he came on, but did they? Was it better or was it not as bad as it originally was? I think Pogba wants out and when you balance it up, it is not encouraging. Surely they must get the three points as the fans will be all over them if they don't get the result here." United will host Newcastle at Old Trafford on Boxing Day.
