Match Preview

Arne Slot will be wondering what the fuss about the Premier League is about, as the Dutchman has made a seamless start to life in England with Liverpool.

The Reds sit nine points clear at the top of the standings after 13 rounds of matches, winning eleven and losing just once. A significant win was recorded on Sunday after easing to a 2-0 success against Man City.

Newcastle’s form so far this season has been patchy to say the least. Eddie Howe’s side have won twice across their last five, but they have dropped into the bottom half of the standings after failing to win in each of their last two.

The Magpies would have been disappointed with a 1-1 draw at Crystal Palace in the previous round.

Newcastle’s chances this week aren’t improved based on their head-to-head record against Liverpool, losing each of their last six against the Reds. Meanwhile, the Magpies are winless in their last 15 against their rivals since a 2-0 win in December 2015.

Liverpool’s away record at St. James’ Park is also incredibly reliable. The Reds have won on five of their last six trips to the North East.

A high-scoring affair could be likely this week. These two sides have met in 15 evening kick offs in Premier League history, with a total of 51 goals being scored. Among the most notable wins were 4-3 victories for Liverpool in successive years in 1996 and 1997.
