The Premier League’s only Boxing Day fixture is upon us, with Manchester United hosting Newcastle at Old Trafford. The Red Devils return from their holidays looking to get back to winning ways after being held by Bournemouth and beaten by Aston Villa in their last two outings. Things are not set to get any easier for Ruben Amorim today, either, as he approaches this match without talisman captain Bruno Fernandes, out with a hamstring injury sustained against Villa. Bryan Mbeumo, Amad Diallo and Noussair Mazraoui are all away at the Africa Cup of Nations, too, compounding Amorim’s selection headaches.
