Liverpool vs Newcastle – Predicted lineup and team news | OneFootball

Liverpool host Newcastle United in the Premier League tonight aiming to move a step closer to title success.

Arne Slot’s side extended their lead in the title race to 11 points with an impressive 2-0 win at Manchester City on Sunday. Liverpool capitalised on a slip from nearest challengers Arsenal with a statement win at the defending champions.

The Reds next face a tough test against a Newcastle team chasing Champions League qualification. Eddie Howe’s side edged our top-four rivals Nottingham Forest at the weekend, securing a 4-3 in at St James’ Park.

Newcastle are sixth in the table, two points adrift of fourth-placed Chelsea with a game in hand.

The clash is a precursor to next month’s Carabao Cup final between the teams. The sides go head-to-head for the first silverware of the season at Wembley on March 16th.
