Newcastle vs Liverpool: team news
The hosts are sweating over the fitness of Alexander Isak, who has scored two goals in four Premier League games against Liverpool.
The Swede was forced to retire on Saturday at Selhurst Park with an apparent hip problem, but the subsequent update was positive.
8
Howe confirmed Isak had suffered a contact injury rather than a muscle problem, but the quick recovery may prevent him from being put at risk.
Callum Wilson He is fit and would be a natural substitute should the 25-year-old be sidelined, but Antonio Gordon offers a different option.
The former Everton star was strongly linked with a summer move to Liverpool but since then reaffirmed his future on Tyneside.
He has operated as a false nine when Isak was unavailable and scored from that position in the draw against Manchester City in September.
8
Gordon provided the assist on the winning goal against Arsenal and also scored in this match at the start of last season.
Crucially, his inclusion as a focal point in attack would allow the in-form Harvey Barnes a rare start in his favored left-wing role.
JoelintonHis defensive work rate would make him a safe option on the right with Sean Longstaff replacing Joe Willock in the middle.
Sven Botman defensive trio, Jamaal Lascellesand Emil Krafth are long-term absentees, which would preclude many other rotations.
8
Liverpool have just one 72-hour turnaround after beating City to reset and start again.
Ibrahima Konate and Kostas Tsimikas were seen on crutches on Sunday, with fellow defender Conor Bradley ruled out until 2025.
Alisson Becker is not yet ready to return, so the same five defenders who kept a clean sheet against City will continue here.
Caoimhin Kelleher will substitute between the suits, with Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andrew Robertson running out.
captain of the reds Virgil van Dijkwhose team has only conceded eight goals in the Premier League so far this season, will once again count on the team Joe Gomez.
Gómez was linked with joining Newcastle in the deal for Gordon in June, but Konate's injury has offered Liverpool a lifeline.
8
The regular exchange of Dominik Szoboszlai and Curtis Jones is likely, and the latter will regain a starting spot at number 10.
Slot's other favorite change has been to the left wing, with Cody Gakpo Scoring in the wins over Madrid and City last week.
The Dutchman has often had to play second fiddle to Luis Diaz, who started as a false nine to combat Guardiola's defence.
However, it seems likely that the Colombian will be rested here, especially to avoid playing the same system that Newcastle could implement with Gordon.
8
Díaz is the only attacker, except for the always present Mohamed Salahhaving exceeded 1,000 minutes under Slot so far this season.
He was also the only player among Sunday's attacking three who was not substituted, so the most likely reasoning is a reprieve.
Darwin Núñez's highlights from his mixed Liverpool tenure remain the two late goals he scored in this match the last season.
The Uruguayan, who has only scored two goals in the Premier League this season, scored the same amount in a late cameo in St James' Park to help ten-man Liverpool complete a remarkable comeback.
