Liverpool have the chance to regain the top spot, if only for a few hours, when they take on Newcastle United at St James’ Park as part of this weekend’s Premier League TV schedule.
Jurgen Klopp’s Reds travel up to the North East for the Saturday lunchtime kick-off – meaning a victory would move them two points above Manchester City ahead of their game against Leeds United later that afternoon.
Goals from Andy Robertson and Divock Origi helped Liverpool navigate a tense Merseyside derby last Sunday but the Anfield outfit’s title hopes are reliant on a Man City slip-up.
They’ll have to avoid any of those themselves and a trip to St James’ Park looks a dangerous proposition with Newcastle unbeaten at home since 2021.
The Magpies have also won four on the bounce in the Premier League, including a 3-0 victory against Norwich City last time out.

Our prediction: Newcastle v Liverpool
Newcastle may be unbeaten at home since last year but the Premier League title is on the line for Liverpool and you wouldn’t bet against them getting the job done again.
There may well be some worrying moments because Eddie Howe has the Magpies high in confidence but the visitors should have the quality to come away with all three points all the same.
Klopp will know that dropping points could be the nail in the coffin for their title charge and the historic quadruple. He cannot allow that to happen.
Our prediction: Newcastle 1-3 Liverpool (12/1 at Bet365)
