Louis van Gaal's team welcome to Old Trafford a Magpies side that are still looking for their first league win under new manager Steve McClaren.
Head coach Steve McClaren spent two and a years as assistant manager to Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester united from 1999- 2001, winning three Premier League titles, the Champions League and the FA cup- when they beat Newcastle in the final.Despite leaving out regular first- choice goalkeeper David De gea in the first few weeks of the campaign while he continues to be linked with Real Madrid, Sergio Romero has kept clean sheets in both of his league appearences, leaving the team as one of three sides yet to concede in the top flight.Red Devil's Manager Louis Van Gaal has said David De gea will not be picked until after the transfer window has shut.
Team News:

United have a couple of fitness concerns as Phil Jones has missed the start of the season with illness, which likely to keep him out of action until the end of August.
