Saturday Soccer
Newcastle vs Liverpool, 5.30pm GMT
Facing the only team in the Premier League to have bested them this season, Newcastle United welcome Liverpool to St James’ Park on Saturday evening.
The Magpies’ spate of stalemates continued with a 1-1 draw away at Bournemouth at the weekend, while the Reds brought joy to the Anfield faithful by beating Everton 2-0 in the Merseyside derby.
To us todays match has 1996 wrote all over it, will we see another classic here? Well were are making a bold prediction read on for our picks.
Newcastle’s Champions League destiny is very much in their own hands still, but failure to convert draws into wins has harmed their pursuit of a podium finish while also allowing the continental hopefuls below them to make up ground, as the injuries piled up for Eddie Howe’s side on the South Coast.
Apprehension may have been creeping in for the Liverpool faithful as they welcomed an Everton side fresh from beating league leaders Arsenal, but the Toffees’ new manager bounce under Sean Dyche did not extend to a Merseyside derby success as the Reds reverted to type.
A lightning-quick Reds counter-attack in the first half ended with Mohamed Salah tapping home – helped by some atrocious positioning from Jordan Pickford – before Cody Gakpo tapped home at the back post for his first goal in Liverpool colours.
As above we mentioned the ’96’ classic that saw Liverpool record a famous 4-3 victory well were going similar here.
