Liverpool host Newcastle in the final match of the Premier League TV schedule during this midweek round of games live on BT Sport.

The Reds have lost just one game out of 24 matches across all competitions this season so far. That includes battles against the elite teams in this country and the Group of Death in the Champions League.

Jurgen Klopp will be delighted by the form his men have shown, particularly since the last international break as they have won all seven matches since returning to domestic action in mid-November.

Newcastle suffered another humbling defeat at the weekend, a 4-0 defeat to Leicester, which shows the enormity of Eddie Howe’s task if he is to stand a chance of keeping his Magpies afloat.

The Tyneside outfit have won just one of their 16 Premier League matches this season, joint-fewest in the league alongside Burnley.

Our prediction: Liverpool v Newcastle

The Ashes may not have returned to our screens just yet, but we could very easily witness a cricket score here.

Klopp may shuffle his pack for the midweek encounter though Mohamed Salah can still be expected to feature, and whoever does start is still going to boast enough quality to get the job done here.

Newcastle simply must tighten up. It’s that basic. They have shipped 34 goals so far in 2021/22 and anything other than a resolute, gritty display will see that figure rise considerably at Anfield.

Our prediction: Liverpool 3-0 Newcastle (13/2 at bet365)
