Newcastle vs Liverpool Match Preview and Team News
Newcastle
Newcastle United will be looking to keep their hopes of Champions League football next season alive when they play host to Liverpool this weekend. The Magpies, who have suffered fewer defeats (one) than any other team in the Premier League this season, have been one of the success stories in Europe in recent months. Nevertheless, last weekend’s 1-1 draw with Bournemouth was the fifth time in their previous six league games that they have been left with just a point after 90 minutes. As a result of these draws, they are now just two points clear of fifth-placed Tottenham Hotspur, meaning that a defeat this weekend would be very painful for Newcastle fans. Sean Longstaff plays well in the middle of the park, and he does not allow the opponent much action. Allan Saint-Maximin plays excellently, he is fast in the one-on-one game, and he is unstoppable, he deserves to play in a better team. Callum Wilson, who is just three goals behind Newcastle United’s top scorer this season, was absent from the last draw against Bournemouth through injury, but the 30-year-old is expected to be back this weekend.
Liverpool
Visiting them will be Liverpool, who will surely have gained some confidence after securing their first league win of 2023 against Everton in midweek. Considering that the Reds have also won each of the last three meetings between these two sides, they will believe they have a chance to pick up another three points that could put them in the top seven should Fulham and Brentford drop points. Fabinho has excellent ball control, he can play in several positions, and every team needs such a player. Gakpo is the engine of this team, his greatest virtue is speed, he has excellent ball control, and he can be satisfied with his performance. The good news for Liverpool is that Diogo Jota and Roberto Firmino, who were out for a while due to injury, were back in action against Everton.
