Newcastle United, Recent FormNewcastle United manager Eddie Howe will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 1-1 draw in his team's last league outing against Bournemouth. They came away from that fixture with 67% of the possession and clocked up 15 attempts on goal with 7 on target. By comparison, Bournemouth managed 11 attempts on goal, with 5 on target.
Howe will be pleased with his team's recent defensive record, having conceded just 2 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have concerns that his team are not scoring many goals, and therefore dropping points. They have clocked up an impressive run of form in front of goal at St James' Park recently, having found the net in 5 of their last 6 home matches. With 5 clean sheets in their last 6 home games, they are proving tough to beat at St James' Park.
There will be mixed feelings from The Magpies, while they've been undefeated in their last 17 league games, they've drawn their last 3.
On an individual basis, Alexander Isak will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Newcastle United's last 6 league games.
Liverpool, Recent FormLiverpool will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 2-0 home win against Everton. In that game they had 59% possession and managed 15 attempts on goal, with 6 on target, compared to Everton who had 6 attempts and 1 on target.
When it comes to attacking power Jürgen Klopp will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 5 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 10 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. They have found it hard to grab league points away from home of late, primarily due to their back line shipping at least 1 goal in 9 of their last 10 away games.
They're experiencing a relativley poor spell of form on the road, having lost 4 of their last 6 away games despite notching up a couple of wins.
On an individual basis, Mohamed Salah will be looking to cause Newcastle United some problems having scored 3 goals in Liverpool's last 6 away games in the league.
The last time these sides were pitched against each other in the league, it ended in a 2-1 win for Liverpool.
During the last 2 times these two teams have met in the league at St James' Park, Newcastle have been unable to break through the visitor's defence and find the back of the net. The stats show that in the last 4 meetings between Newcastle and their rivals, The Reds, the former have conceded at least one goal. The Magpies have struggled for goals when Liverpool comes to visit St James' Park, having scored just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings.
In the last 3 league meetings between the teams, Liverpool has taken all 3 points and has not lost to Newcastle in 12 games.
Liverpool player Virgil van Dijk will be looking to cause Newcastle some problems having scored 2 goals in the last 3 league meetings between the teams at St James' Park.
