Many a Premier League sage handed the title to Liverpool after Arne Slot's side beat City 2-0 at the weekend, but the Dutch gaffer will be taking nothing for granted until the Reds are champions for a record-equaling 20th time. First-half goals from Dominik Szoboszlai and the scarcely credible Mo Salah – now on 25 goals and 16 assists in 2024/25 – were enough for a side that has lost once in the league all season and have scored at least twice in the last 17 outings in all competitions. Alexis Mac Allister has been passed fit after picking up a black eye at the weekend, but Arne Slot will be absent from the bench after his red card in the Merseyside derby a few weeks ago. His assitsant Johnny Heitinga will be on the bench.
Newcastle may not have won at Anfield since 1994 in all competitions but the Magpies will be confident of ending that three-decade-plus drought. Back in fifth place in the Premier League, Eddie Howe's side have won won 13 of their past 16 matches in all competitions and have the upcoming Carabao Cup final against the Reds to possibly end their 70-year wait for a major trophy. That being said, Howe was furious at the Mags' second-half struggles to limp to a 4-3 win against Nottingham Forest at the weekend, saying "it feels like we lost" after conceding sloppy set-piece goals. Can they put a dent in the Slot machine, without missing star forward Alexander Isak?
