Newcastle take on the visitors Liverpool in the round 24 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, February 18th at St. James Park (Newcastle).
Newcastle had a great run last calendar year. As part of the previous season, a hopeless outsider turned into a strong middle peasant. And already from the very start of the new draw, it was Eddie Howe's wards who were the main competitor for Arsenal in the dispute for the unspoken title of the breakthrough in English football. Quite confidently, it turned out to stay in 3rd place, right behind the Gunners and Manchester City. In winter, there were also successes, which is worth reaching the League Cup final - they will play for the trophy with Manchester United. But at the same time, there were also problems. The Magpies are still good defensively, but at the same time they score very little. It seems to be working out as a result to continue its unbeaten streak. But at the same time, in the last 6 rounds there was only 1 victory (1-0 with Fulham, and then due to late goal in the 89th minute by Isak) with 3 draws 0-0 and a pair of 1-1, in the last match against West Ham and even underdog Bournemouth.

Liverpool are in 9th position in the current standings in the English Premier League, and this is perhaps the best assessment of what is happening now with the Reds. By and large, even Jurgen Klopp can save this season in the Premier League, despite the fact that there are questions in all positions above them, starting from the 3rd. But a lot of points have been lost, and not much is left before the end of the season. Yes, on Tuesday to finally please his fans with a confident victory against Everton in a derby. Winter signing Cody Gakpo was able to score for the first time since moving to England. But you just need to remember that the Toffees are weak and desperately fighting for survival. There seems to be more of a chance for Liverpool to really shine in the Champions League. Next week the Reds start at 1/8-finals against Real Madrid. How will the German manager distribute the forces of the wards on the eve of an important confrontation?
Liverpool have won all 3 last head-to-heads - even this season they won 2-1 over Newcastle. The Magpies last time defeated Liverpool back in 2015. Bookmakers believe that the chances of the parties to win will be more or less equal. And also they are waiting for a spectacular duel. But both clubs have questions about the level of attack. We bet on "total under 3.0 goals".
Prediction for the match: Under 3.0 scored goals.
