Liverpool welcome Newcastle United to Anfield in the first game of 2024.  These two teams have given us some classic games over the years, including earlier in the season, when Liverpool scored two late goals to secure a dramatic victory.  Liverpool were in good form against Burnley, whilst Newcastle have been struggling with injuries, but the Reds will still need to play well to secure another three points.
