This is Newcastle’s last league action until March, as they face Manchester United in the Carabao Cup final next Sunday, February 26 at Wembley. Their only league defeat of the season came against Liverpool earlier in the season, so they will be keen on avenging the loss this evening.
Liverpool line-up
Jurgen Klopp’s options have been significantly boosted by the return of Virgil van Dijk, who was out of action for several weeks with an injury. Stefan Bajcetic retains his place in midfield after an exceptional performance in the Merseyside derby on Monday.
