Newcastle vs Liverpool

Match preview

St James' Park plays host to the latest chapter of this fixture as Newcastle welcome Liverpool back to the northeast. Recent history in this matchup suggests goals are guaranteed, with seven hitting the back of the net when these sides met earlier in January following a five-goal thriller on Tyneside at the start of last season.

Neither meeting went the way of the home side across those previous encounters, with Liverpool claiming both victories by convincing margins. Newcastle will be eager to shift that momentum in front of their own supporters and turn their recent struggles in this fixture around.
