Jurgen Klopp warned his Liverpool team not to underestimate Newcastle United ahead of the Reds' trip to St. James' Park on Saturday.
Having beaten Villarreal in the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals on Wednesday night, Liverpool are back in action on Saturday lunchtime as their Premier League title challenge continues in the north east. The club had previously failed in their efforts to get the kick-off time changed to aid their preparations in Europe.
Newcastle currently sit ninth in the Premier League table and have been on an impressive run since losing to the Reds at Anfield in December 2021. Losing just four of their subsequent matches, it is in complete contrast to their form prior to last facing Liverpool, where they had won just one of their opening 16 matches and sat 19th in the table.
