Game to watch – Newcastle v Liverpool

Liverpool start the Premier League weekend with probably their toughest assignment of the five left between now and the end of the season. Which is further testament to the job being done by Eddie Howe at Newcastle.

This is a clash of the top-flight’s two most in-form teams of 2022. Howe’s Newcastle entered January second-from-bottom of the table, with all hopes pinned on the winter window as their only route out of danger. Of course, spending £92million helped but there is much more behind the Magpies’ stunning revival, with Howe at the core of it all.

Since the turn of the year, Newcastle have earned six fewer points than Liverpool but two more than Manchester City. Only City have beaten the Toon on Tyneside since Howe took over and they are currently on a six-game winning streak at home, their best run since 2004, to take them to ninth in the table.

So the prospect of going to a stirringly unified St James’ Park on Saturday lunchtime, in between Champions League semi-final legs, has to be the most daunting test
