As Newcastle United prepare to return to winning ways against Liverpool on Saturday after their 1-1 draw against Bournemouth, we have tried our best to call their predicted lineup.
Despite an underwhelming string of recent results, Eddie Howe may end up making only 1 change to his starting XI from last weekend.
Newcastle United predicted lineup vs Liverpool
Nick Pope remains the first name on the team sheet and unsurprisingly so.
At right-back, the ‘unbelievable’ Kieran Trippier looks dead set to start in our Newcastle predicted lineup against Liverpool.
The same can be said about the rock-solid centre-back pairing of Fabian Schar and Sven Botman, who will have to be at their very best keep Mohamed Salah and Co. quiet.
Dan Burn, much like Kieran Trippier seems nailed-on to start from the off in our Newcastle predicted lineup against Liverpool.
With Joe Willock set to miss the upcoming clash due to a hamstring injury, according to the Chronicle, Eddie Howe could change his formation that includes the double pivot of Sean Longstaff and Joelinton, who also played against Bournemouth.
Of course, Bruno Guimaraes will serve his final game from his 3-game suspension after his red card in the Carabao Cup semi-final.
At right-wing, Miguel Almiron, who received high praise from Newcastle legend Nobby Solano is expected to start in our predicted lineup.
On the opposite flank, the ‘unreal’ Allan Saint-Maximin is likely to start, and will perhaps target the out-of-sorts Trent Alexander-Arnold in 1v1 situations, considering his status as one of the most frightening dribblers in the Premier League.
Due to having just 2 midfielders at his disposal, Eddie Howe could tinker his formation to play a 4-4-2 against Liverpool, with the ‘underrated’ Callum Wilson replacing the injured Joe Willock in a front two that also includes Alexander Isak.
Newcastle United predicted lineup vs Liverpool: Pope, Trippier, Schar, Botman, Burn, Almiron, Longstaff, Joelinton, Saint-Maximin, Isak, Wilson
