LIVERPOOL v NEWCASTLE (Friday 19.45 Sky Sports 1)

Stats Analysis

Liverpool are unbeaten at home this season with three wins and six draws in their nine league games, but they have had too many home draws against inferior oppsition. The ratings are suggesting that there is not much value in their current price at (1.57). Newcastle are a tough nut to crack away from home and if you do fancy Liverpool to win then the best option is to dutch them to win by 1 or 2 goals, all 3 of Liverpoool's home victories this season have come via this margin as have all 5 of Newcastle's previous 5 away defeats. Dutching the Liverpool win by 1 or 2 goals (2.00).

If you do fancy Newcastle to do well then the best option is to keep the draw on side and Newcastle can be backed on the Asian Handicap +1 goal at (2.10). The draw is priced at (4.50) and this looks to offer some value especially given Liverpool's recent home form which has seen then draw 5 of their last 6 games at home.
