English Premier League odds, September 11 picks: Expert reveals best bets for Manchester United vs. Newcastle

The fans at Old Trafford are eager to see Cristiano Ronaldo in his return to Manchester United when the Red Devils host Newcastle on Saturday in an English Premier League clash. The Portuguese superstar led the Red Devils to three league titles and a European championship before moving on to Real Madrid and Juventus. He remains a top striker and joins a team that already boasted a wealth of attacking talent. Manchester United is 2-1-0 with a disappointing draw to Southampton but faces a decimated Newcastle squad that got its first point just before the international break.        

Kickoff is set for 10 a.m. ET in Manchester, England. Caesars Sportsbook lists Man U as the -550 favorite (risk $550 to win $100) in its latest Manchester United vs. Newcastle odds, with Newcastle the +1500 underdog and a draw priced at +600.

Why you should back Manchester United

The Red Devils were loaded without Ronaldo, and he is expected to join Bruno Fernandes, Mason Greenwood and Jadon Sancho in the starting lineup. Greenwood has three goals this season, while Fernandes was third in the EPL with 18 in 2020-21 and Ronaldo led Italy’s Serie A with 29 for Juventus. Fernandes had a hat trick in a 5-1 opening win against Leeds United. Man U has won the last three meetings against Newcastle by a combined 11-3 scoreline and is 89-39-43 in the all-time series.  

United faces a Newcastle team that could be down to its third-choice goalkeeper with Martin Dubravka out and Karl Darlow banged up. The Magpies have yielded eight goals in the first three games, so that doesn’t bode well, and they have scored just four. Striker Callum Wilson, who scored two of those goals, also is out. A Manchester United defense featuring new star Raphael Varane along with Harry Maguire, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Luke Shaw should have little difficulty.    

Why you should back Newcastle 

Newcastle is off to a tough start, taking just one point from its first three games. The Magpies are missing several key players, including Wilson, Dubravka, playmaker Jonjo Shelvey and winger Ryan Fraser. Allan Saint-Maximin and Joelinton will be the main threats, and Saint-Maximin scored in the 2-2 draw with Southampton before the break. Newcastle has not won at Old Trafford since 2013 but has scored at least once in nine of its past 10 matches there. 

The Magpies surely used the international break to regroup, and they are well-rested and have only the Premier League to focus on right now. Their FA Cup campaign starts in October, and they only have three matches the rest of this month. Newcastle finished 12th last season and scored a respectable 46 goals in the 38 matches but allowed 62, fifth-most in the league. They were, however, fifth in the league in blocked shots and fourth in yellow cards. They are likely to play a defensive and physical game, trying to rattle Man U’s stars, and hope for the best.
