Liverpool vs Newcastle United Match Prediction, Fantasy Football Tips and Possible Starting Lineups

The 2024/25 Premier League season has been anything but predictable. With Spurs, Manchester United, and Manchester City all struggling to find consistency, unexpected contenders like Nottingham Forest, Bournemouth, and Newcastle have emerged in the race for a Champions League spot. But while chaos reigns elsewhere, Liverpool have remained a cut above the rest. They’ve dominated the competition and are now closing in on their second Premier League title.

However, there’s still work to be done, and their next challenge is a tough one. They go up against Newcastle United in a clash that serves as a dress rehearsal for next month’s EFL Cup final. Liverpool head into this game riding high after a composed and clinical 2-0 victory over Manchester City. Goals from Mohamed Salah and Dominik Szoboszlai secured their second win over City this season – something they never managed during Jurgen Klopp’s tenure. That triumph has given the Reds a commanding 11-point lead at the top of the Premier League table. No team has ever thrown away a title from such a strong position at this stage of the season, and Arne Slot’s side will be eager to keep their momentum rolling with another win over Newcastle. 

However, getting past the Magpies won’t be a walk in the park. Their last encounter was a pulsating 3-3 draw at St. James’ Park. But playing at Anfield is a whole different challenge. Adding to their concerns, Newcastle have been struggling for form, losing three of their last five league games. If Liverpool keep up their relentless march, this could be another step toward sealing the title.
