Liverpool vs Newcastle United Match Preview

Premier League action returns after the 2019-20 season’s first international break with Liverpool aiming to make it five wins out of five – and, at least temporarily, move five points clear at the top of the table.

Already the signs are pointing towards another two-horse race for the English title because Liverpool and champions Manchester City have resumed in the superb form they ended last term, while those hoping to challenge them are dropping points left, right and centre.

Anfield could be touted as the biggest home advantage a team could be given at present in the world of this sport. Spanish champions Barcelona will provide sufficient testament to this statement.
