Newcastle – Liverpool, the count of the matches of the 3rd stage of the English Championship, scheduled for Sunday, August 27, from 18:30 at St. James’ Park and will be broadcast live on Digi Sport 1, Orange Sport 1 and Prima Sport 1.
“Newcastle” and “Liverpool” – two teams that aim to at least get into the top 4 this season, will meet in the derby of the 3rd stage of the Premier League.
Newcastle impressed last season, finishing 4th and qualifying for the Champions League, a sign that the money invested by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, which manages nearly €400bn and is overseen by Mohammed bin Salman , the crown prince, is beginning to show its fruits.
The Cofenele continue to work with Eddie Howe on the bench, but they have made some changes to the squad, bringing in Sandro Tonali from AC Milan, Harvey Barnes from Leicester and Tino Livramento from Southampton, with the most important departures being Allan Saint- Maximin at Al Ahly and Chris Wood at Nottingham Forest.
Newcastle have played two hot matches this start of the season, winning one, 5-1 at home to Aston Villa, and losing one, 0-1 away to Manchester City.
Liverpool finished in 5th place in the last round of the championship, only going to play in the Europa League, so this summer manager Jurgen Klopp made a drastic change to the team.
They have signed Dominik Soboshlaj from RB Leipzig for €70m, Alexis McAllister from Brighton for €42m and Watara Endo from Stuttgart for €19m, while the drop list includes Fabinho, Roberto Firmino, Naby Keita, Jordan Henderson, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and James Milner.
The Cormorants opened the season with a 1-1 draw away to Chelsea before winning 3-1 at Anfield against Bournemouth in a game that saw Alexis McAllister sent off in the 58th minute .
It should be noted that Eddie Howe has been defeated in each of the last ten direct meetings with Jurgen Klopp and could become, in the event of Newcastle’s defeat against Liverpool, the first manager in the history of the Premier League to lose 11 games in a row against the same one coach!
Liverpool won both legs against Newcastle last season, 2-1 in the first leg at home and 2-0 in the second leg away from home.
