Newcastle striker Callum Wilson confident scoring against Man Utd tonight

Newcastle United striker Callum Wilson fancies scoring against Manchester United.

United were thrashed 6-1 by Tottenham in their last Premier League outing and currently sit 16th in the Premier League table.

They face Wilson's Magpies at St James' Park on Saturday night and the English forward is relishing playing against their out-of-sorts defence.

"I see they have conceded 11 goals in three games, so you take confidence from that," he said ahead of the game.

"It could be a case that when they got back together they were a little bit shaky and a little bit nervous after their last performance.

"I've been around working with the squad and there were a lot here who are probably going to play"
