Manchester United’s trip to face Newcastle United in December has been moved for television coverage. 

The Red Devils will be adamant about overseeing a more positive result than the 2-0 defeat they sustained at St. James’ Park last season.

It comes as both of the sides’ first fixtures in December, when fans are well aware the schedule can quickly become frantic and jam-packed with crucial games.

United vs Newcastle confirmed KO time

The winter clash will take place on Saturday, December 2 at 8pm and will be shown on TNT Sports, formerly BT Sport. United’s Champions League away match versus Galatasaray is the Wednesday prior, hence why the Premier League outing could not take place in the 12.30pm slot.

Newcastle will also be on the back of their European away trip to face Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc des Princes, so both managers will be tasked with navigating their squads wisely in order to see out top performances across both matches.
