Confirmed Newcastle team v Liverpool as Gordon, Elanga, Barnes all start

The confirmed Newcastle team v Liverpool has now been announced.

Eddie Howe and his team looking to bounce back after that Premier League defeat to Aston Villa last Sunday.

However, United buoyed by their performance and result at PSG in midweek in the Champions League.

Newcastle will go above Liverpool in the table if winning this match.

This Premier League match kicking off at 8pm.

Newcastle team v Liverpool:

Pope, Trippier, Thiaw, Burn, Hall, Tonali, Ramsey, Willock, Elanga, Barnes, Gordon

So that means three changes from the eleven that started against PSG in Paris on Wednesday night.

IN

Trippier, Barnes, Gordon

OUT

Miley, Woltemade, Botman

Eddie Howe once again surprising many people.

Changing to a back four in defence.

Then in attack, playing neither of his centre-forwards, instead going with three of his wingers up front.

I am assuming Gordon will start in a central role but we can expect a fluid front trio, as they hope to use pace and movement to get at Liverpool.

SUBS:

Ramsdale, Botman, Wissa, Osula, Jacob Murphy, Woltemade, Alex Murphy, Miley, Shahar
