Newcastle vs Liverpool: Reds look to build on Bournemouth win against wounded Magpies - stream, TV channel, team news

LIVERPOOL travel further north to take on a Newcastle side with a chip on their shoulder.

Julian Alvarez's 31st-minute strike was enough to see Manchester City beat the Magpies at the Etihad.

And Eddie Howe will be determined for his men to find the form that saw Newcastle thrash Aston Villa 5-1 on the opening weekend.

However, the Toon go up against a Liverpool side who just comfortably beat Bournemouth despite going a goal down in three minutes.

Furthermore, it was a day to forget for the hosts when the sides last met at St. James' Park.

Team news

Eddie Howe will have to continue without Joe Willock who is out with a hamstring issue, while Emil Krafth and Javier Manquillo are unlikely to play a part too.

Joelinton limped off in the City defeat so the Newcastle gaffer could be forced into relying on Elliot Anderson or Sean Longstaff as replacements.

Elsewhere, Thiago Alcantara is still ruled out with his long-term hip injury.
