Liverpool – Newcastle: Reaction needed at Anfield 
Liverpool host Newcastle at Anfield on Saturday night in a big top-four scrap. Both clubs are wobbling and desperate to reset the mood.
Liverpool must stop the bleeding 
The Bournemouth loss last weekend still stings. Down 2-0, they fought back, only to collapse in stoppage time — a too-familiar script this season. Liverpool haven’t won in the league since New Year and are five Premier League matches without a victory. That slump has pushed them down to sixth.
Still, Anfield is a platform. Midweek they thrashed Qarabag 6-0 in the Champions League to seal a place in the last 16. The Reds haven’t lost at home in seven matches in all competitions.
Newcastle still lean on Guimaraes 
Bruno Guimaraes’ absence showed up again against Aston Villa. Beaten 2-0 at St James’, Newcastle lacked control and bite in midfield. They’ve failed to score in their last two league games and have slipped to ninth. The top four is still possible, but the gap is opening.
On the road they’re fragile: only three away wins so far this season, and a long, ugly run against Liverpool. Newcastle haven’t won at Anfield in the Premier League for ages.
Likely line-ups
Liverpool : Alisson ; Szoboszlai, Endo, Van Dijk, Kerkez ; Gravenberch, Mac Allister ; Salah, Wirtz, Gakpo ; Ekitike
Newcastle : Pope ; Thiaw, Botman, Burn ; Trippier, Guimaraes, Tonali, Hall ; Barnes, Wissa, Gordon
Football Prediction Liverpool vs Newcastle
Liverpool to win
Newcastle travel poorly and struggle against the big teams away from home. Even shaky in the league, Liverpool still carry weight at Anfield and can use the crowd to kickstart a run.

A quick word on our predictions
- What we publish on Mathodds are analyses — opinions, not guarantees. We offer a read on the moment. Sport is unpredictable. A red card, an injury, a freak goal… and everything flips.
- Let’s be blunt: there’s no such thing as a risk-free bet. Even when something looks “obvious”, it rarely is. Yes, that means you can lose. It’s inevitable at some point.
- Play it sensible. Stake small, set a budget and stick to it. Don’t touch money you need to live on. And don’t chase losses — it almost never ends well.
- Betting should be entertainment, not a job or income source. If it’s taking over, making you anxious or stressed, step back. Talk to a specialist if you need to. That’s what they’re for.
- Ultimately, the responsibility is yours. Reading our content means you accept the risk is real and won’t vanish, even with the best analysis.
- Important reminder: betting is prohibited for minors and must follow your local laws. Gambling can spiral (money loss, family strain, addiction). Need help? Players Info Service: 09 74 75 13 13 (standard-rate call) https://www.gambleaware.org/.
No commitment from us
Our predictions are not contractual. They carry no legal weight. In plain terms: you can’t rely on them to claim compensation if a bet fails.
Info that can change
A prediction is based on what we know when we write it. A line-up changes, a player gets injured, the weather turns… and the analysis can become obsolete fast. We can’t be held responsible for that.
Your role
Before you bet, check that gambling is legal where you live. If it isn’t, that’s on you, not us.
