Newcastle United vs Liverpool Prediction and Betting Tips | 18th February 2023
The Premier League returns to the fold with another set of matches this weekend as Newcastle United lock horns with Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool side in an important clash at St. James' Park on Saturday.
Newcastle United vs Liverpool Preview
Liverpool are currently in ninth place in the Premier League standings and have struggled to meet expectations so far this season. The Merseyside outfit eased past local rivals Everton by a comfortable 2-0 margin last week and will look to achieve a similar result in this fixture.
Newcastle United, on the other hand, are in fourth place in the league table at the moment and have been in impressive form under Eddie Howe this season. The Magpies were held to a disappointing 1-1 draw by Bournemouth in their previous game and will need to take it up a notch this weekend.
