The Reds are sitting at the top of the league, and have yet to taste defeat in the opening four games of the campaign. Prior to the international break, Liverpool brushed aside Burnley 3-0 with Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane getting on the score sheet.

In injury news, goalkeeper Alisson is still sidelined with a calf complaint. Midfielder Naby Keita is expected to feature after missing the last game with a hip injury.

As for Newcastle, they have been improving under new boss Steve Bruce. Defeats to Arsenal and newly promoted Norwich were quickly remedied with a big win away to Tottenham and a 1-1 draw against Watford, leaving the Magpies in 14th place in the standings.
Having already stunned a member of the top six away from home, Newcastle is likely to set up in a similar fashion to frustrate Liverpool. Expect a tight 5-4-1 formation, with the emphasis on counter-attacking football, and making the most of any set-piece opportunities.
In team news, a number of first-team players will be unavailable for selection as midfielders Matt Ritchie, Jack Colback and Allan Saint-Maxim are all ruled out, whilst DeAndre Yedlin and Florian Lejeune also missing with long-term injuries. There will be no homecoming for former Liverpool striker Andy Carroll who has yet to play since moving back to Newcastle in the summer.
Predicted Team
Dubravka; Krafth, Schar, Lascelles, Dummett, Willems; Almiron, Hayden, Longstaff, Atsu; Joelinton.
It certainly promises to be a fascinating encounter as Liverpool look to continue winning ways against a Newcastle side who could pull off an upset at Anfield. As ever, you will be able to follow all of the action with beIN SPORTS.
