Newcastle vs Liverpool: Pre-Match Opta Facts
Newcastle are winless in their last 19 Premier League games against Liverpool (D5 L14). Only against Manchester City have they ever gone 20+ consecutive meetings without a victory against an opponent in the competition (22 between February 2006 and September 2018). Liverpool haven’t lost any of their last nine Premier League games against Newcastle at St. James’ Park (W6 D3) and could equal the longest unbeaten run by a team away to the Magpies in the competition here: 10 games by Manchester City (March 2007 – December 2017). There have been 198 goals scored in Premier League meetings between Newcastle and Liverpool, and with two goals in this game it would be the third fixture to reach 200 in the competition, after Liverpool v Tottenham (211) and Arsenal v Tottenham (200). Liverpool are unbeaten in their first Premier League match in the last 13 seasons (W10 D3) since losing 3-0 to West Brom in 2012-13. Newcastle manager Matthias Jaissle has won his first game in charge at each of his three previous clubs (Liefering, FC Red Bull Salzburg and Al Ahli). His Al Ahli side were also unbeaten at home in the Saudi Arabian League last season (W14 D3), winning the last 13 in a row. This will be Andoni Iraola’s first game in charge of Liverpool. The Spaniard is on the longest current unbeaten run of any manager in the Premier League (last 18 games of 2025-26 with Bournemouth), while he’s also never lost any of his six meetings with Newcastle in the competition (W3 D3).Enjoy this?
