After that win against City,Newcastle is favorite in this match.
Newcastle are unbeaten in 4 and have won their last 3 in all competitions. A turnaround in fortunes means the feel-good factor has returned to St. James' Park following a tumultuous start to the season.
Liverpool have impressed on their travels to St. James' Park, winning 3 of their last 6. A 2-1 win over Swansea City in midweek will have boosted confidence and the Reds will hope to carry this into the lunchtime meeting with Newcastle.
Had these two met earlier in the season, Liverpool would have been favourites for the win, but Newcastle's form of late means the spoils could be shared.
