Newcastle vs Liverpool Predictions
Liverpool can continue their Newcastle run
Newcastle have failed to beat Liverpool in their last 19 Premier League meetings. The Magpies have also lost key figures in Sandro Tonali, Anthony Gordon and Bruno Guimaraes, while Eddie Howe has left the club after guiding them back into the Champions League.
The home side now face a Liverpool team with only one defeat in their last 27 league games in August. Andoni Iraola’s arrival at Anfield followed a more expected managerial change, with the former Bournemouth boss taking charge after impressing on the south coast.
Newcastle’s final 16 matches of last season brought only one clean sheet. That defensive record comes against a Liverpool side that have regularly found goals in this fixture.
I’m backing Liverpool to Win at 1.91. The Reds have a 19-match unbeaten Premier League run against Newcastle behind them, and the result market appeals at these odds.

Liverpool scoring record points towards another 2-1
Liverpool scored at least twice in six of their last eight visits to St James Park. The Reds also won their first five matches of last season, including a victory over eventual champions Arsenal.
This fixture produced a dramatic 3-2 Liverpool win earlier last season, and the visitors have repeatedly found the net on this ground. Newcastle’s single clean sheet across their final 16 games of the previous campaign keeps the focus on their defensive record.
The Magpies have had a difficult summer, but Liverpool’s away scoring numbers at St James Park remain difficult to overlook. The Reds are selected for a narrow win, with the 2-1 scoreline matching the recent pattern of goals in this meeting.
Liverpool 2-1 could be worth a look at 9.50. The Reds have scored twice or more in six of their last eight trips to Newcastle, and I like the odds on a 2-1 Liverpool victory.
Tip: Liverpool 2-1 @ with N/A
Szoboszlai carries the scoring threat
Dominik Szoboszlai has a chance to become one of Liverpool’s main attacking figures this season after the departure of Mo Salah. His shooting ability from long range and free-kicks gives him a clear route into the goalscorer market.
The Hungarian midfielder recorded 23 shots on target in the league last season, the highest total among Liverpool players. His role also includes set-piece situations, with the possibility of taking over penalty duties after Salah’s exit.
Newcastle’s defensive record from the end of last season included only one clean sheet in 16 matches, while Szoboszlai’s personal shooting numbers keep him involved in attacking areas.
Szoboszlai To Score Anytime is worth a bet at 3.75. His shot volume and role around Liverpool’s attacking play make him a standout option in the goalscorer market.
