Match preview - Tues 19th Apr

A look ahead to Tuesday's fixture in the Barclays Premier League.

Manchester United make the trip to St James Park looking to extend their lead at the top to nine points before Arsenal play Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday.
Three points for Newcastle United would virtually guarantee their Barclays Premier League status.

Newcastle v Man United

Manchester United eased to a 3-0 victory against Newcastle in the first match of the season at Old Trafford, Dimitar Berbatov, Darren Fletcher and Ryan Giggs all on target.
After looking out of their depth in that match, Newcastle have had a more than respectable season back in the Barclays Premier League and currently sit 10th in the table.
Sir Alex Ferguson's side have lost three of their last six away matches, while Newcastle have tasted defeat in just one of their last six at home.
The last time Newcastle beat Man United at home was in September 2001 when they triumphed 4-3.
