Your support makes all the difference.Newcastle United host Liverpool in the Premier League on Wednesday night, with the league leaders looking to maintain their position at the top of the table.
Arne Slot’s men defeated Manchester City 2-0 on Sunday to move nine points clear of their closest rivals, Arsenal, and can get a firmer grip on their position with a victory at St. James’ Park.
Meanwhile, Newcastle conceded a last-minute equaliser to draw against Crystal Palace and continue a disappointing return to action since the international break.
Eddie Howe’s men sit 11th after the weekend’s results, and though a win at this point isn’t vital in their chase for top four, another loss this evening would be a serious dent in their hopes ahead of a busy winter period.

GOAL! There’s another twist in the tale!
It’s sloppy from Liverpool, as Guimaraes swings in a deep free-kick to the back post. Kelleher has come for it but decides to leave it, but Schar has crept in at the back post and manages to slide in and direct it into the back of the net!

GOAL! Who else!? He’s been threatening, and has Salah got the winner?
The visitors work it well on the edge of the box and Szoboszlai dummies to allow the pass to come to Alexander-Arnold on the right-hand edge of the box. He looks up and squares it to Salah, who takes a touch into the space behind him and hits a low shot on the swivel that settles in the bottom corner!
