Liverpool’s long winning run is over after they were held to a dramatic 3-3 draw by Newcastle. The Reds had been victorious in each of their last seven matches across all competitions before Wednesday night at St James’ Park, where they could not hold onto a late lead as they saw their title advantage at the Premier League summit trimmed down to seven points by closest challengers Chelsea and Arsenal.
It was an incredible contest packed full of action and incident, with both sides hitting the woodwork before Alexander Isak thundered home to give Newcastle a half-time lead. The game truly ignited after the interval, with Curtis Jones sweeping in an early leveller before Anthony Gordon then restored the hosts’ lead shortly after the hour mark. The introduction of Trent Alexander-Arnold off the bench helped to change the game for Liverpool as he twice teed up Mohamed Salah for tidy finishes inside the box.
Isak saw his own second goal disallowed for offside and was also controversially denied a late penalty after falling under the challenge of Jarell Quansah. Liverpool could not hold on though, with Fabian Schar punishing an error from Caoimhin Kelleher at a free-kick to slide in an equaliser from a tough angle at the start of stoppage time.

Game on!
Newcastle 1-0 Liverpool
20:36 , George FloodBack underway at St James’ Park.
No changes from either manager just yet.
Same XI for Liverpool and it looks like the same configuration in defence, with Quansah still at right-back and Gomez alongside Van Dijk.
By the way, Trippier misses out for Newcastle tonight through illness.
Newcastle 1-0 Liverpool
20:29And here’s *that* miss from Gordon that really should have made it 2-0 just a couple of minutes later.

Newcastle 1-0 Liverpool
20:20 , George FloodHalf-time
A very impressive first half from Newcastle, who deservedly lead at the break after Isak’s belter and really should be further ahead after Gordon’s huge miss.
Liverpool not really at the races so far, sluggish and flat with issues in defence.
Slot may look to change things for the second half.
Newcastle 1-0 Liverpool
20:19 , George Flood49 mins: Newcastle have a very late first-half corner as Gordon asks more questions of Quansah.

Slot looks furious on the touchline. The leaders are really struggling tonight.
Newcastle 1-0 Liverpool
20:0937 mins: A huge, huge chance for Newcastle to go 2-0 up!

GOAL! Newcastle 1-0 Liverpool | Alexander Isak 35'

Don’t see that often!
Newcastle 0-0 Liverpool
19:55 , George Flood24 mins: Livramento is caught in possession by Gakpo inside his own penalty area and Tonali has to step across to block the Dutchman’s effort on goal.

19:51 , George Flood18 mins: Mac Allister with a rather cynical bump on Schar there.
It’s not his first foul in these opening 20 minutes and he’s going to receive the first yellow card of the night.
It’s his fifth of the season, so he’ll be suspended for the Merseyside derby on Saturday.
Big blow for Liverpool.
Newcastle 0-0 Liverpool
19:4615 mins: Woodwork!
Mac Allister the dangerman now for Liverpool as he attempts a low left-footed strike that clips the outside of the post and rolls wide.

Newcastle vs Liverpool
19:30 , George FloodUnderway at St James' Park!
Liverpool are hunting an eighth straight win against a team who haven't beaten them in the league since 2015.
Andy Madley is today’s referee, both teams in their traditional home strips.
Stuart Attwell is on VAR duty.
Quansah is starting at right-back for Liverpool, with Gomez alongside Van Dijk.
Newcastle vs Liverpool
19:26 , George FloodHere come the teams at St James’ Park!
Some lovely flag/tifo work around the place.
Liverpool have won five and drawn one of their six away league games so far this season, while Newcastle have won three out of six at home.
Chiesa starts for Liverpool's U21s tonight
19:18No Federico Chiesa in the senior squad again tonight, but he is starting for Liverpool’s Under-21s in their Premier League International Cup game against Danish side FC Nordsjaelland.
Reds fans will be hoping the injury-plagued Italian winger comes through that contest unscathed so he can join the first team sooner rather than later.
They have only caught brief glimpses of their lone summer signing so far since his cut-price switch from Juventus.
Slot explains Alexander-Arnold benching
19:12 , George FloodSlot confirms to Amazon Prime Video that Liverpool are just being mindful of Alexander-Arnold’s fitness tonight with so many games coming up and a shortage of defenders suddenly with Konate, Bradley and Tsimikas all sidelined.
So no fresh setbacks for Trent after that hamstring injury.
Quansah or Gomez at right-back for Liverpool?
19:10 , George FloodThe TV coverage appears to suggest that it will be Quansah at right-back for Liverpool tonight, with Gomez keeping his place alongside Van Dijk in the middle with no Konate.
I would have thought they would switch around, so it’ll be interesting to see how Slot plans to line up.
Eddie Howe eager for new signings as he warns against 'staleness'
19:07 , George FloodIt’s fair to say that Eddie Howe is desperate for some new faces to revitalise this stalling Newcastle squad in January, having not made a major impactful addition since the summer of 2023.
"I think freshness is important in a squad, I won't sit here and deny that,” he said.
"There needs to be a certain element of trading in and out to keep the group dynamic new.
“A new dynamic and a new team always has to form every season.
"Sometimes the same squad can produce a staleness and a negative product, so I think we're aware of that.
“But it's about what we're able to do rather than, 'I want'. What I want is clear. It's what we're able to do that is the key thing."
Joelinton back in Newcastle midfield
19:01 , George FloodA little bit of a tweak from Newcastle, with Joelinton reverting back to a midfield role in a three alongside Sandro Tonali and Bruno Guimaraes after playing further forward against Crystal Palace on Saturday.
Jacob Murphy’s inclusion means he will take that role instead supporting Anthony Gordon and Alexander Isak, with Joe Willock dropping out.
Will that be Kieran Trippier gone from Newcastle in January? Not even making the squad tonight might suggest so.
Alexander-Arnold fitness being managed after injury?
18:54Interested to hear Arne Slot’s take on benching Trent Alexander-Arnold tonight, but I presume that’s just to manage his fitness rather than any fresh setback.
The England right-back only made his first appearance since recovering from a hamstring injury against Manchester City on Sunday, having stayed as an unused substitute in the win over Real Madrid.
He got 73 minutes under his belt at the weekend before being replaced by Jarell Quansah, who faces a big game tonight with Joe Gomez shifting over to right-back from the start.
Three Liverpool changes as Alexander-Arnold drops out
18:38 , George FloodThree changes from Arne Slot to the Liverpool team that beat Manchester City, with Trent Alexander-Arnold dropping to the bench along with Dominik Szoboszlai and Luis Diaz.
Joe Gomez shifts over to right-back having deputised for the injured Ibrahima Konate on Sunday, with Jarell Quansah partnering Virgil van Dijk in central defence instead.
Curtis Jones also comes in along with Darwin Nunez, who loves scoring against Newcastle - including two late goals off the bench to win at St James’ Park last season.
No returns for any of Alisson Becker, Federico Chiesa or Diogo Jota just yet.
On the bench, teenage defender Amara Nallo replaces goalkeeper Harvey Davies.
Isak fit for Newcastle as Murphy replaces Willock
18:35 , George FloodNewcastle fans breathe a sigh of relief with Alexander Isak fit to start tonight after that hip issue that forced his early exit at Crystal Palace.
Eddie Howe makes just one change from the side that could not hold on to beat the Eagles after Marc Guehi’s own goal, with Jacob Murphy preferred to Joe Willock.
There’s no Kieran Trippier in the squad at all, with Matt Targett coming onto the bench.
Liverpool team
18:19 , George FloodStarting XI: Kelleher, Gomez, Van Dijk, Quansah, Robertson, Mac Allister, Gravenberch, Jones, Salah, Gakpo, Nunez
Subs: Jaros, Endo, Diaz, Szoboszlai, Elliott, Alexander-Arnold, Morton, Nyoni, Nallo
Newcastle team
18:18 , George FloodStarting XI: Pope, Livramento, Schar, Burn, Hall, Bruno Guimaraes, Tonali, Joelinton, Murphy, Gordon, Isak
Subs: Dubravka, Wilson, Barnes, Targett, Osula, Almiron, Kelly, Willock, Longstaff
Lineups on the way
18:15A cold December night in store on Tyneside.
Official team news is now imminent...
Liverpool offer Van Dijk new contract with Salah to follow
18:11There does at last appear to be some movement with regards to the one major storyline that could yet distract Liverpool from their trophy aims this season - the well-publicised contract situations of Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
All three key players will see their current deals at Anfield expire next summer, with no progress yet made in terms of extensions with the clock ticking down.
But David Ornstein of The Athletic reported earlier on today that Liverpool have at last made an opening contract offer to Van Dijk, with one expected for Salah soon and talks also continuing over Alexander-Arnold.
Eddie Howe: I'd rather be out of a job than change style
18:02 , George FloodEddie Howe is coming under yet more pressure at Newcastle after a troubling run of just two wins from their last nine Premier League matches that has seen them drop out of the top half altogether.
Criticism of his style of play has grown louder among the frustrated Toon fanbase over recent weeks, not improved by conceding a last-gasp equaliser at Selhurst Park over the weekend.
However, Howe defiantly said yesterday that he would rather be out of a job than sacrifice his attacking footballing principles.
“For me, attacking is fundamental. It is your aim of the game. You are giving your players a purpose,” he said.
“We will always look to attack. I make no apologies for that. I would rather not be in a job than not fulfil that promise to the supporters. We want to entertain ultimately.
"We want to play attacking football that ultimately the fans want to see.
“I know we are not delivering that at the moment and that is a frustration, we are not going to drop that we just have to become better than that."
Arne Slot: Newcastle trip 'harder' than Real Madrid and Man City tests
17:50 , George FloodThis is a run to test Liverpool’s trophy mettle, but so far they have passed with flying colours.
Six of their next nine games are away from home, including Saturday’s last-ever Merseyside derby at Goodison Park, with such a relentless period of games between now and the New Year.
Does Arne Slot agree that his confident and dominant side are title favourites?
“I've said many times already, we don't look at it at this moment like this,” the Reds boss said yesterday.
“We know we have a difficult week coming up again.
“We thought [Real] Madrid and [Manchester] City were very difficult teams to face – which they actually were as well – I think it's even harder to go [for] an away game to Newcastle.
“We're not even halfway through the season yet but it's a good position to be in, that's definitely true.”
Alexander Isak arrives at St James' Park
17:38Potentially huge team news for Newcastle - Alexander Isak has been pictured and filmed arriving at St James’ Park tonight as normal.
Hopefully for the Magpies a sign that the Swedish striker is fit enough to play after that hip injury that forced him off early at Crystal Palace and a lack of subsequent training involvement.
But will he be able to start?
Liverpool out to continue recent dominance over Newcastle
17:33 , George FloodWhile it’s fair to say that Newcastle have raised their game against high-level opponents during the course of a disappointing season so far, their recent record against Liverpool is truly wretched.
The Reds have absolutely dominated this fixture in recent years, winning six on the spin and five of the last six at St James’ Park.
Newcastle have not beaten Liverpool in any of the last 15 league meetings, a run that stretches back to December 2015.
Last season on Tyneside, Darwin Nunez came off the bench to score two dramatic late goals for Liverpool in a 2-1 win in a game in which Newcastle had taken the lead through Anthony Gordon and Virgil van Dijk was sent off.
The two sides also met at Anfield on New Year’s Day, with Mohamed Salah notching a brace in a commanding 4-2 victory.
Newcastle vs Liverpool prediction
17:14Newcastle have tended to raise their game against the so-called ‘bigger teams’ in the Premier League so far this season, having beaten Tottenham and Arsenal in addition to drawing with Manchester City at home.
However, Liverpool are on such a roll at the moment and it’s difficult to look past them, especially with Mohamed Salah in the form he’s in.
Liverpool to win, 2-0.
Early Liverpool team news: Chiesa close to return
17:10 , George FloodLiverpool look set to have lone summer signing Federico Chiesa back soon after an injury-plagued start to his Anfield career.
Alisson Becker and Diogo Jota are also expected to return shortly, though tonight will surely come too soon for their No1 as Caoimhin Kelleher continues to deputise in goal.
Kostas Tsimikas is still out, while Ibrahima Konate and Conor Bradley are set for a few weeks on the sidelines.
Early Newcastle team news: Isak faces fitness test
17:06 , George FloodThe big team news question for Newcastle tonight surrounds the fitness of Alexander Isak, their star striker who was forced off early with a hip injury during Saturday’s dramatic 1-1 draw at Crystal Palace.
The Swedish international is a huge doubt and faces a late fitness test, with manager Eddie Howe telling reporters on Tuesday: “We haven’t seen him in training yet.
“We don’t think it’s a long-term injury. We’ll see. It will be about pain management.”
The Magpies remain without defenders Jamaal Lascelles, Emil Krafth and Sven Botman.

Newcastle vs Liverpool live
17:01 , George FloodLiverpool will be looking to maintain or extend their healthy nine-point lead at the Premier League summit when they travel to face Newcastle at St James’ Park this evening.
The Reds are soaring with confidence amid a seven-game winning run across all competitions and successive 2-0 victories over Real Madrid and crisis-stricken Manchester City that has continued their phenomenal start to the Arne Slot era.
Now they come up against a Newcastle team who have won just two of their last nine in the top-flight to sink down to 11th, with Eddie Howe facing more pressure.
Liverpool have an incredibly strong recent record on Tyneside and against Newcastle in general, and will be strong favourites to produce another three points tonight.
Kick-off is at the earlier time of 7:30pm GMT, so stay tuned for match build-up, latest team news and live updates.
