Manchester United welcome Newcastle to Old Trafford on Monday night with a victory the priority for the Reds in the Premier League
Newcastle striker Alexander Isak has credited his team's high intensity, out-of-possession work rate for their upturn in form ahead of Monday night's trip to Manchester United.
The Reds currently find themselves in a rut having lost three matches in a row. Defeats to AFC Bournemouth and Wolverhampton Wanderers were particularly uninspiring and have left United sitting just eight points above the relegation zone. "It helped us get off to a great start at Ipswich recently. And after that, we kept the same level throughout the game.
Should this gameplan be used to its full effect on Monday, it looks like Andre Onana and his three centre-backs will be targeted by the Newcastle press which could spell bad news for Ruben Amorim's side. United have not dealt brilliantly with teams that like to win the ball back high in the opposing team's half and Amorim will be hopeful of masterminding a solution that beats the away side's press.
