Harry Redknapp has been talking about Newcastle United.
The former Spurs and Bournemouth boss discussing Eddie Howe and his team ahead of this first home match of the season.
Newcastle United at St James’ Park.
An 8pm kick-off on Monday night.
United set to face Liverpool.
Harry Redknapp talking to BetVictor ahead of Newcastle United playing at home to Liverpool:
“What an atmosphere this will be, this will feel like a cup final or European night! There was already a little bit of needle between these two clubs in recent years, but the Isak situation has only made things worse. Those fans will be bang up for this one and I think the Newcastle players will look to send a message too.
“Liverpool were scintillating at times going forward against Bournemouth but they didn’t look great at the back, and I do think that will be an area of concern for them.
“I just don’t see where the goals will come from for Newcastle, they don’t really have a striker at the minute. I think Liverpool get the win.
“Prediction – Newcastle 1 Liverpool 2.
“One to watch – Ekitike was almost lining up for Newcastle, it’s crazy how this whole situation has played out!”
Harry Redknapp predicting a narrow Liverpool win but this is a match where anything can happen, all results possible.
It could very much depend on which team handles the occasion in the best way, as things are set to be so intense at St James’ Park.
