The pressure is on but Newcastle United know their top-four fate remains in their own hands. Two wins from their last three fixtures will guarantee a place in next season's Champions League for the Magpies in what will be their first foray into European football for a decade.
Newcastle United and Manchester United both appeared to have all but cemented their place in the top four only a couple of weeks ago. However, a dramatic late rally from Liverpool has put both clubs under threat with the Reds' winning seven straight matches including a comfortable 3-0 victory at Leicester City on Monday night.
Jurgen Klopp's side currently sit a point adrift of both in the table, having played one match more. In his recent analysis of the top-four race, Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville has no doubt Liverpool will win their remaining two fixtures starting with a home clash with Aston Villa on Saturday night.
