Head-to-head record

Previous meetings: 181 Newcastle wins: 48 Draws: 41 Man Utd wins: 92

Man United lead the overall head-to-head record between these two teams, posting 92 wins to Newcastle's 48, while there have also been 41 draws in this particular fixture throughout history.

Newcastle have won five of their last six matches against the Red Devils, though, with two of those victories coming during the 2023-24 campaign.

The Magpies beat Erik ten Hag's side 2-0 in the Premier League at St James' Park in April 2023, which proved to be their first league success over the 20-time English champions since October 2019, before winning 3-0 at Old Trafford in the EFL Cup and 1-0 at St James' Park in the league.

Newcastle also beat Man United 2-0 when the pair locked horns in December 2024, with Alexander Isak and Joelinton on the scoresheet, before recording a 4-1 success in the reverse game at St James' Park in April 2025.

Man United have only actually won two of their last nine matches against Newcastle in all competitions, including a 3-2 victory at Old Trafford in May 2024.

The Red Devils have faced Newcastle on 60 occasions in the Premier League and boast an excellent record against them, posting 33 wins, suffering just 11 defeats in the process.

Nine of Newcastle's 11 Premier League wins over the Red Devils have unsurprisingly come at home, with their highest victory proving to be a 5-0 back in October 1996.

Three of the first four Premier League meetings between the two sides finished 1-1, while two of their last seven top-flight encounters have also ended in a share of the spoils.

Man United have lost just two of their last 40 home league game against Newcastle, winning 28 times in the process.

Wayne Rooney is the leading goalscorer in this fixture, netting 13 times against Newcastle during his time at Man United, while Ruud van Nistelrooy, Andy Cole and Paul Scholes all managed 11, with Cole's goals coming both for and against Man United.
