Newcastle vs. Liverpool live stream: Watch Premier League online
Newcastle face Liverpool at St. James’ Park on Saturday, May 4. Here’s all the info you need to watch.
Liverpool are coming off of a devastating 3-0 loss in the first leg of their Champions League semifinals tilt against FC Barcelona, falling victim to Lionel Messi’s superlative brilliance.
Despite the loss, Liverpool are in sensational form in the Premier League as they trade wins blow-for-blow with Manchester City in yet another engaging title race between these two powerhouse clubs.
The Reds have not conceded a goal in their last three league games, which includes a 2-0 win over Chelsea and a 5-0 blowout of Huddersfield last week. With Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah in top form and the stout back four healthy, Liverpool will be overwhelming favorites to pick up all three points on Matchday 37.
However, Newcastle are familiar with playing the role of the spoiler, and the 13th-placed Magpies are unbeaten in their last three with a recent 1-0 win over Leicester City.
Ayoze Perez’s status is in question after suffering an injury last week, though he did bravely score another goal through the pain. Perez is on top form right now, so his absence would be felt. That said, Newcastle have Salomon Rondon to pick up the slack, as he is second on the team behind Perez with nine goals this season and paces the Magpies in assists with seven.
If Newcastle’s midfield players can step up and the team can put in some crunching tackles behind a rowdy crowd at St. James’ Park, an upset is possible. However, Liverpool are one of the four remaining Champions League teams for a reason, as few sides can match their consistency, star power, and tactical awareness.
