Command Analysis
Liverpool
EnglandLiverpool had an amazing 2021-2022 season. The Reds won the League Cup and the FA Cup - in both finals, they defeated Chelsea on penalties. They finished in 2nd place in the Premier League with a total of 92 points and 94 goals, and were the runner-ups in the Champions League. Liverpool defeated Inter Milan, Benfica, and Villarreal to reach the final for the 10th time in club history, but in the decisive game they lost to Real Madrid.
Jurgen Klopp's men started the new season with a victory in the Community Shield match. In the Premier League, the Reds have only five points after four games. After two draws and a 1:2 defeat to Manchester United, they thrashed Bournemouth (9:0) last Saturday.
Alcantara, Diojo Jota, Kelleher, Konate, Keita, Ramsay, and Oxlade-Chamberlain are sidelined with injuries. Darwin is suspended after getting a red card in the game against Crystal Palace.
Newcastle United
EnglandNewcastle were off to a terrible start last season. They lost too many points in the Premier League, and despite having a great second half of the season, finished only in 11th place with 49 points. In the League Cup, they made an early exit following their defeat to Cambridge United.
This football year has started differently for the Magpies. In the summer, the club signed Sven Botman from Lille (37 million), Matt Targett from Aston Villa (17.5 million), and Nick Pope from Burnley (11.5 million). Newcastle beat Tranmere and reached the last 16 in the League Cup. After a victory over Nottingham Forest (2:0) in the first Premier League game, Eddie Howe's side got three straight draws.
Krafth, Guimaraes, Shelvey, and Wilson have been ruled out of this fixture.
