Latest team news for Newcastle vs Liverpool
There was no reconciliation between Isak and Newcastle this past week. The £150 million-rated striker continued to be excluded from the squad as he publicly expressed his desire to move to Anfield.
Apart from Isak, Newcastle have almost a full squad. Joe Willock is on the road to returning from a calf injury and is Howe's only injury concern at the moment. New signing Jacob Ramsey may be given his debut, but it's more likely the manager will let him get used to the team gradually, while Anthony Elanga, Anthony Gordon and Harvey Barnes will have a chance to redeem themselves in attack.
Barnes has a particular advantage on the left wing as Liverpool will be without Jeremie Frimpong until after the international break due to a hamstring injury. Conor Bradley has just returned to training, and Joe Gomez's fitness is also being closely monitored.
Coach Arne Slot even mentioned the possibility of moving Dominik Szoboszlai to right-back, with the return of Ryan Gravenberch after his suspension giving him more rotation options.
Up front, Salah – after his familiar goal in the opening round – continues his pursuit of an impressive record against Newcastle: 10 goals and 8 assists in the Premier League, including assists in 6 consecutive matches against the "Magpies".
Latest predicted lineups for Newcastle vs Liverpool
Newcastle United:
Pope; Trippier, Schar, Burn, Livramento; Guimaraes, Tonali, Joelinton; Elanga, Gordon, Barnes
Liverpool:
Alisson; Szoboszlai, Konate, Van Dijk, Kerkez; Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Wirtz, Gakpo; Ekitike
Latest football match prediction: Newcastle vs Liverpool
An ongoing transfer saga is becoming the special backdrop for Monday night's highly anticipated match – a game seemingly perfectly timed by the Premier League calendar – as Isak makes every effort to leave his home team and join the reigning champions.
The Swedish striker and Newcastle have been constantly clashing with harsh statements. Isak accused the club of breaking promises and asserted that their relationship could not continue, while the Magpies maintained that there was no agreement allowing him to leave the team this summer.
While constantly facing the same old questions at press conferences, manager Eddie Howe was busy looking for attacking alternatives to compensate for Isak's absence. However, his team failed to impress against Aston Villa in the first round, even after Ezri Konsa was sent off for a late foul.
Continuing their poor form from the end of last season, Newcastle have now failed to score in three consecutive Premier League matches. The last time they went four consecutive games without scoring in England's top flight was back in February 2020, before the pandemic.
Nevertheless, the black and white striped team could extend another positive streak: winning their first home game of the season for the fourth consecutive year under Howe. They have also won six of their last seven matches at St James' Park.
Meanwhile, Liverpool had no difficulty despite Isak's absence. In the opening round of the Premier League, "The Reds" nearly paid the price for their lax defense against Bournemouth, but ultimately won in a match that saw six goals.
New signing Hugo Ekitike scored and assisted on his debut, before Antoine Semenyo scored an impressive brace – shortly after he accused fans of racism. Federico Chiesa scored a spectacular volley and Mohamed Salah also found the opening goal of the season, extinguishing Bournemouth's hopes of a comeback.
It was a day of fire meeting fire at Anfield, as Liverpool compensated for their defensive weaknesses with attacking prowess to end a four-match winless streak in the Premier League, and redeem themselves after their Community Shield defeat against Crystal Palace.
However, including that defeat, Liverpool have only kept a clean sheet in 1 of their last 10 official matches – against already-relegated Leicester City. But they have a chance to equal an impressive attacking record: if they score against Newcastle, Liverpool will reach 36 consecutive games scoring in the top flight, matching the historic record set in 2019-2020.
While Newcastle won last season's League Cup final, in the Premier League, the Magpies have failed to win any of their last 17 encounters with the reigning champions.
