The Newcastle United team is really starting to pick itself for Eddie Howe but he still has decisions to make for the visit of Liverpool. He will be desperate to see his side disrupt the Reds’ title - and quadruple – charge in Saturday’s early kick-off.
Despite winning each of their last four Premier League games, there have been a few changes to the team in recent weeks. Howe opted to make four alterations from the 1-0 win against Crystal Palace and they paid dividends as the Magpies comfortably beat bottom club Norwich 3-0.
This weekend’s clash poses a very different challenge for United as one of Europe’s truly elite teams are the visitors to St James’ Park. Howe might be tempted to opt for a more defensive set up with the knowledge of how dangerous Liverpool’s attacking assets can be.
