Liverpool team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Newcastle United

Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Saturday's Premier League clash with Newcastle United.

Liverpool's pursuit of Premier League glory continues with a lunchtime trip to St James' Park to take on Newcastle United on Saturday.

The Reds' 2-0 win over Merseyside derby rivals Everton leaves them one point behind Manchester City at the top of the rankings, with Jurgen Klopp's side still relying on the reigning champions dropping points.

Liverpool also won by the same scoreline in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final with Villarreal on Wednesday night, with Sadio Mane netting after a Pervis Estupinan own goal.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with the Magpies.
