Liverpool face Newcastle in the Premier League on Sunday, so we simulated the clash to predict the final score
Liverpool face another tough test in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon when the Reds take on Newcastle United in the Premier League.
The Reds may be without Ibrahima Konate on Sunday, with the Frenchman a significant doubt after picking up a muscle injury. Waturo Endo could potentially start his first game for Liverpool, with Alexis Mac Allister also available after his ban was overturned following the wrongful red card he picked up last week.
After an extremely quiet and even first half, Liverpool thought they had taken the lead when Cody Gakpo poked Salah's cross through the legs of Nick Pope at the near post, but the flag was up, and the goal was ruled out for offside. The pressure from the Reds continued as they enjoyed a spell of domination, and Klopp's side took advantage when Diaz made it 1-0 in the 71st minute.
Gakpo came close twice in the following 10 minutes when he was sent through one-on-one, but a great save and a fantastic last-ditch challenge kept the score at 1-0. Newcastle had rarely threatened in the final 30 minutes of the game, but an error at the back allowed the Magpies to level the score in the 89th minute.
