League leaders are looking to maintain their nine-point advantage

Premier League leaders Liverpool face Newcastle United at St James’ Park on Wednesday night.

The Reds are coming off a fine week after recording 2-0 wins over Real Madrid and Manchester City at home in the space of four days, the latter of which put them nine points clear at the top of the table.

Meanwhile it’s been a stop-start season for the Magpies. They looked to be back on track with victories over the Gunners and Nottingham Forest, but a surprise loss at home to West Ham and a draw with Crystal Palace has halted their progress.

With the race for European qualification so tight at present, Newcastle can move into the top half of the table with a win coupled with results elsewhere going in their favour.

Date, kick-off time and venue

Newcastle United vs Liverpool is scheduled for a 7.30pm GMT kick-off on Wednesday, December 4, 2024.

The match will take place at St James’ Park.

Newcastle United vs Liverpool team news

Alexander Isak is a major doubt for Newcastle after he was replaced after just 22 minutes against Crystal Palace at the weekend. Eddie Howe has stated it was a contact injury rather than a muscle pull for the striker, so the hope is the Swede makes a swift recovery.

Jamal Lascelles, Emil Kraft and Sven Botman remained sidelined with longer-term injuries.

Liverpool will be without Conor Bradley, Ibrahima Konate and Kostas Tsimikas for the trip to Tyneside, but Diogo Jota, Alisson Becker and Federico Chiesa could all be available for selection.

Newcastle United vs Liverpool prediction

Newcastle have tended to raise their game against the so-called ‘bigger teams’ in the league having beaten Tottenham and Arsenal in addition to drawing with Man City at home.

However, Liverpool are on a roll at the moment and it’s difficult to look past them especially with Mohamed Salah in the form he’s in.

Liverpool to win 2-0.
