Newcastle vs Liverpool FC: Prediction, kick-off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results, odds
The Magpies proved so impressive last season but twice lost to Jurgen Klopp’s side, who were the only team to get the better of Eddie Howe’s outfit home and away.
Still, St James’ Park has turned into something of a fortress under Howe and the jury remains out on just how successful the rebuild has been for the Reds.
While there have been promising signs at times, Liverpool have a lot to prove.
