Liverpool will look to maintain their nine-point lead at the top of the Premier League table as Arne Slot’s side visit Newcastle United in what is another crunch week for the Reds.

After beating Real Madrid and Manchester City at home, Liverpool head on the road to face Newcastle and Everton, in the last Merseyside derby at Goodison Park, in the space of four days.

And Liverpool’s title challenge will be strengthened if they remain on course - with Newcastle boasting a good home record against the big sides this season having beaten Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham while drawing against Manchester City.

But it’s been a tough recent spell for Eddie Howe’s side, who were beaten by West Ham last week before conceding “absolutely devastating” late equaliser against Crystal Palace on Saturday.

Newcastle, who fell into the bottom half of the table after drawing at Selhurst Park, have also not beaten Liverpool in the Premier League since 2015. Here’s everything you need to know.

When is Newcastle vs Liverpool?

The Premier League match will kick off at 7:30pm BST on Wednesday 4 December.

What is the team news?

Alexander Isak is a doubt for Newcastle and will be checked after picking up a hip injury in the 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace. Eddie Howe said on Tuesday that Isak had not trained, but had not suffered a long-term injury.

Liverpool will be without Ibrahima Konate, Conor Bradley, Alisson Becker and Kostas Tsimikas, while Diogo Jota is also unlikely to feature.

Possible line-ups

Newcastle XI: Pope, Livramento, Schar, Burn, Hall; Tonali, Guimaraes, Longstaff; Joelinton, Gordon, Barnes

Liverpool XI: Kelleher; Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson; Mac Allister, Gravenberch, Jones; Salah, Nunez, Diaz
