Liverpool vs Newcastle
The Premier League action continues as two northern clubs will rival on New Year’s Day as EPL current league leader Liverpool welcomes Newcastle United to their Anfield Stadium.
Liverpool Preview
Liverpool is looking to go back to their very best this season after having poor form in the 2022–23 season. The Reds will come into this game with an unbeaten record in their last 12 Premier League games, and a win in this match will see them go three points ahead of second-place Aston Villa.
Merseyside, when playing at their home stadium, has seen them win seven of their nine league games played at Anfield. Liverpool won seven Premier Leagues and played a recent draw to Manchester United and Arsenal.
Liverpool have been excellent in terms of goal scoring, as they have scored 22 goals in their nine home league fixtures and conceded only six.
Liverpool eased past Burnley at Turf Moor by a 2-0 scoreline this week and will be confident ahead of this fixture.
Newcastle Preview
Newcastle United had good performances in the 2022–23 season, as they finished fourth with 71 points, seeing them play in the Champions League under their current manager, Eddie Howe. The pressure is increasing on Eddie Howie at this stage of the season in 2023-2024, as Newcastle’s away form has been woeful, with Howe’s side winning just one of their last seven Premier League away games, losing each of the last four in a row against Luton Town, Tottenham Hotspur, Everton, and Bournemouth.
The Magpies’ away performances in the Premier League have been hugely disappointing after their exit from the Champions League, recording three away losing streaks. The Magpies have only scored one away league goal in their last four Premier League games.
Newcastle suffered a disappointing home defeat to earn Nottingham Forest their first Premier League win under their new manager, Nuno Espirito Santo. Chris Wood scored a hat-trick against his former club to secure all three points for his club. The defeats left them in 9th position, one point above Chelsea, who is in 10th position.
Liverpool vs Newcastle Betting Tips
Liverpool have won their last five Premier League games against Newcastle, and they have an unbeaten record against the Magpies. Newcastle’s Anfield record is much worse, too, with the Magpies winless in their last 27 Premier League away games against Liverpool. We believe the Reds will secure all three points in front of their supporting fans
