Marcus Rashford Anytime Goalscorer

Marcus Rashford seems to have rediscovered himself in recent months, much to the rejoice of Man Utd fans everywhere. He’s managed 14 goals for himself this season in the Premier League alone, and 24 goals in all competitions.

He’s already notched five goals from five appearances in the Carabao Cup and we expect to see him carry that form into the final.

Player to Commit 2 or More Fouls: Joelinton

Believe it or not, Joelinton has committed the fourth-most fouls in the Premier League this season alone, sitting only behind Jeffrey Schlupp, Kai Havertz and Moises Caicedo.

Since moving back from the more attacking position he played in seasons gone by, it’s clear his tackling isn’t exactly where it should be.

Player to Have 1 or More Shots on Target: Alexander Isak

Alexander Isak hasn’t necessarily been the revelation many had anticipated since arriving at Newcastle, although that’s in large part to missing a substantial chunk of time this season dealing with a hamstring injury. He’s back into the starting line-up now and we’re expecting to see him put David de Gea under pressure at some stage.

Isak averages getting 66% of his shots on target this season, and even despite the small sample size, that’s a decent showing.

Under 9.5 Corners

What Newcastle have really done well since Eddie Howe took over is managing set pieces. What’s the best way of preventing set piece goals? Well, that would be preventing set pieces from occurring in the first place! Newcastle average about 7.3 total corners per game this season, both home and away. For that reason, under 9.5 is our call.

Bet Builder 2:

Man Utd to Win
Team to Receive the Most Cards: Man Utd
Under 2.5 Goals
Player to Complete 70 Passes or More: Lisandro Martinez

Man Utd to Win

Had it not been for a Nick Pope Red Card, Martin Dubravka being cup-tied and Karl Darlow loaned out for the season, we’d have been more inclined to have this game finishing as a draw due to Newcastle’s fantastic defensive record so far this season.

However, it’s fourth-choice goalkeeper Loris Karius, the infamous Liverpool goalkeeper from 2018 Champions League Final, between the sticks and that could just give the Red Devils the edge.

Team to Receive the Most Cards: Man Utd

Man Utd currently sit as the third-worst team in the Premier League in terms of how many bookings they’ve picked up this season (53), compared to Newcastle who sit in 11th (42). With Man Utd currently priced as outsiders in this market, it could be well worth adding as a leg.

Under 2.5 Goals

With Newcastle’s fantastic defensive record this season, it won’t be easy for Man Utd to break them down. We’re expecting to see plenty of challenges for Erik ten Hag’s side in the front third, where they will be met with relentless pressure and fantastic organisation from Eddie Howe’s side.

It’s for this reason that we’re looking for this to be a relatively low-scoring affair, just like three of the last four Carabao Cup Finals.

Player to Complete 70 Passes or More: Lisandro Martinez

The butcher of Amsterdam, as he was affectionately known at Ajax, has done a lot more than just chop up attackers since arriving at Carrington. Martinez, despite much chatter about his height, has flourished in England since his arrival.

He currently is rated in the 90th percentile in Europe from a pass completion perspective, averaging over 71 passes per game. For that reason, he’s making his way into our Bet Builder.

Bet Builder 3:

Bruno Fernandes – Anytime Assist

Either Team to Win in Extra-Time

If you’ve got a funny feeling about the first 90 minutes of this game, then this three-leg Bet Builder could be for you. In the event that Newcastle can hold off Man Utd’s attack for 90 minutes, or even nab a goal of their own, this game could absolutely go to extra-time, and that’s what we’re weighing off with this Bet Builder.

Bruno Fernandes – Anytime Assist

Bruno Fernandes has managed nine assists in all competitions this season season. Despite being below double digits on the year, we’re all entirely aware of the wizardry he is able to conjure up on his day. He’s not afraid of the spotlight and loves to be the hero.

The Portuguese Guy will be looking to pick apart a defence led by Sven Botman with intelligent weighted passes that will leverage the bigger bulkier Newcastle centre backs.

Over 3.5 Cards

Across all Newcastle games this season, there has been an average of 4.3 cards handed out. Man Utd are averaging a total 3.7 cards per game, but that rockets up to 4.75 on away days. In addition to this, referee David Coote is averaging 3.75 cards given out per game in his 20 refereeing appearances, including 10 cards in just two games in the league cup. Just a quickie folks…. remember there is no Money Back If One Leg Lets You Down offer for Bet Builders with less than four legs.
