Manchester United needed a stoppage-time goal from Scott McTominay to see off Cypriot minnows Omonia Nicosia in midweek but, Manchester derby aside, their Premier League form is impressive, taking 15 points from the last six games. Another win here would mark the first time they've won three home games in a row since last December.

Erik ten Hag has made three changes to his side, with Raphael Varane, Luke Shaw and Jadon Sancho taking the places of Victor Lindelof, Tyrell Malacia and Marcus Rashford. Cristiano Ronaldo starts as the lone striker, while Christian Eriksen misses out through illness.

Newcastle come into this game off the back of the 5-1 thrashing of Brentford last weekend, which leaves them just a point behind United. After a run of six games without a victory, Eddie Howe's side have now won two on the bounce, scoring nine in the process, and have only lost once all season – but their record at Old Trafford isn't great: just one win in the last 37 league games there.  

There's just one change to the side that hammered the Bees, with one Joe in for another: Joelinton replaces Joe Willock in midfield. 

Will Newcastle's powerful forwards take control or will the ten Hag revolution keep on rolling? Follow our guide to get a Manchester United vs Newcastle live stream and watch the Premier League online from anywhere in the world.

How to watch Manchester United vs Newcastle without cable

OTT streaming service Sling TV is reasonably priced and includes both USA Network and NBC in select markets, as part of its Sling Blue package. The usual cost is $35 a month, but if you're new to the service you can get your first month for half price.

Another over-the-top streaming service that includes USA Network and NBC in select markets is FuboTV. It's a much more comprehensive cable replacement, and carries more than 100 channels including Fox, CBS and ESPN.

Prices start at $69.99 a month after a FREE FuboTV trial.

If you subscribe to Peacock, Sling or any other US streaming service and find yourself unable to access coverage because you're out of the country, consider using a VPN as outlined below - we rate ExpressVPN as the best of the best.

How to watch Manchester United vs Newcastle from outside your country

We've set out how you can live stream Manchester United vs Newcastle in a number of countries around the world. However, if you're away travelling for pleasure or for work, you probably won't be able to watch the game like you normally would at home. This is the result of geo-blocking - best understood as digital borders that restrict certain services and content to specific parts of the world.

The best VPN can let you get around these digital borders, while also offering robust protection from cybercriminals and government snooping. They're also really easy to use.
