There are 5 games left to play for Liverpool and they have to shorten 6-point margin to Arsenal in order to be in the Champions League next season. They made on step forward to this objective thrashing their rivals Everton in recent derby 4:0.
Both sides have their injury lists full, but there’s too much at stakes so it won’t be a crucial matter this time. It primarily applies to Newcastle United as they are in the relegation zone. However, they seemed to find next gear recently as they beat Swansea at home (1:1) and tied Manchester City few days ago. The Magpies are 19th, but they are just 2 points behind 17th spot that will allow them to survive.
Liverpool’s Can, Skrtel, Henderson and Benteke are ineligible among others. Sloppy Everton failed to do anything with impressive form of Liverpool, but motivated Newcastle can obviously do better. Still Liverpool will be bossing the game, while the visitors try to counter-attack.
Prediction: over 2.5 goals in the match.
