It’s not the first time Premier League bosses have scheduled a match for this late in the day and there’s a simple explanation for it.
The latest Newcastle v Man Utd odds can be found on the Paddy Power website and Paddy Power app.
Newcastle v Man Utd kick-off time
Newcastle v Man Utd is scheduled to kick off at 8pm on Saturday due to a combination of Champions League commitments and television rights.
TNT Sports selected the fixture for its Saturday lunchtime slot, but the kick-off time is deemed too soon for teams playing in Europe on Wednesday or later.
The Red Devils were involved in a Champions League classic on Wednesday evening as they threw away the lead on multiple occasions in a 3-3 draw with Galatasaray.
