Gameweek 19 : Boxing Day, Christmas Gift At The Top
English Premier League is Back ! In Boxing Day !
As the top of the standings, Liverpool this time will fight with Newcastle at Anfield Stadium, in the Gameweek Premier League 19 (12/26/2018).
After a 2-0 win over Wolves last weekend, Liverpool are now four points ahead of Manchester City. Outstanding performance shown by Jurgen Klopp's boys this season. They are the only team in the league that has not been touched by the 18 matches that have been played.
Jurgen Klopp knows, the period at the end of this year is very important and there is no doubt he will motivate his players to continue to fight hard in the coming period. Some changes are likely to be made by Klopp on the composition of the Liverpool players in this match, considering the team has two very complicated matches against Arsenal and Manchester City.
Of course seeing the Reds' superior record, could make Newcastle United a little hesitant about blocking them. But in reality, they are also ready to compete after in the last six matches only two defeats and collected eight points.
At present the Toons Army sits in 15th position with 17 points. They are only five points different from Burnley's red zone position. Three points will be urgently needed, considering Rafael Benitez had been pressured because at the beginning of the season they had difficulty gaining victory.

Match Prediction
The Magpies must be vigilant when visiting Anfield Stadium. Until now Liverpool have not lost at home this season in the Premier League.
It's difficult for Newcastle to just steal one point.
But Rafael Benitez's troops will surely try to give the best.
We predict, Liverpool will extend their unbeaten record this season with a victory 2-0.
