NEXT MATCH


LIVERPOOL V NEWCASTLE UNITED
Sunday 3 May 2009 13:30

Liverpool entertain Newcastle United at Anfield on Saturday with the Reds looking to retain their unbeaten home record in the Barclays Premier League.

Rafa Benitez's side have not lost a league game at Anfield since December 2007 and enjoy a fine record against the Magpies in front of the Kop.

Last season, a Fernando Torres inspired Reds ran out comfortable 3-0 victors and Newcastle haven't claimed a point at Anfield since May 2004 when they played out a 1-1 draw on the final day of the season.

That draw came ten years after they last won a league encounter at Anfield.

Earlier this season, the Reds demolished Newcastle 5-1 at St James' Park. Steven Gerrard scored twice with Sami Hyypia, Ryan Babel and Xabi Alonso also finding the back of the net.
