Match Preview: Newcastle vs Liverpool

Things are looking promising for Arne Slot and his Liverpool squad as they prepare for the 120-mile trek to St James’ Park this week.

Since taking over from Jurgen Klopp, the 46-year-old has achieved 18 wins from 20 matches, with his team scoring 47 goals and conceding only 12, registering an impressive 11 clean sheets.

Liverpool is currently at the top of the Premier League, boasting a nine-point lead after a commanding win against rivals Manchester City on Sunday, which extended their winning streak to seven across all competitions.

Bookmakers are now favoring them to secure the Premier League title, especially with Pep Guardiola’s defending champions struggling for form.

During their sole Premier League title campaign in 2019-20, Liverpool had secured 37 points through 12 wins and a draw at this stage, which is just three points more than their current total.

They will look to hit that 37-point benchmark on Wednesday against a stumbling Newcastle.

Eddie Howe’s team recently suffered an unexpected 2-0 defeat to a struggling West Ham and allowed a late equalizer against Crystal Palace this past weekend.

Currently positioned at 11th in the league, Newcastle has mustered just TWO shots on target in their last two matches, the least of any team in the league.

Additionally, they might be without key player Alexander Isak, who had to be substituted within the first 25 minutes of the draw at Selhurst Park.

Betting tips and predictions for Newcastle vs Liverpool

Win to Nil

Given Newcastle’s attacking struggles and Liverpool’s robust defensive display, I predict an away victory without conceding at St James’ Park on Wednesday.

As previously noted, Newcastle has managed only two shots on target in their last two games against struggling West Ham and Crystal Palace, ranked fifth and eighth in expected goals conceded (xGC) this season.

The potential absence of Alexander Isak could complicate matters further against a Liverpool side boasting the league’s top defensive record.

Slot’s team has allowed the fewest goals (8), has the most clean sheets (7), and has defeated both Manchester City and Real Madrid without conceding, showcasing the best away form in the league.

Cody time

Cody Gakpo has been in exceptional form lately, scoring six goals in his last seven matches for Liverpool, including goals against Manchester City and Real Madrid in his latest outings.

Importantly, in the last six Premier League appearances, only Mohamed Salah has surpassed Gakpo’s 13 shots on goal. He also has a solid scoring record against Newcastle, having scored twice in three victorious matches.
