Who do our rivals play during April?
NEWCASTLE
5th, 47 points
High-flyers Newcastle United are bidding to qualify for Europe for the first time since the 2012/13 season and have had an impressive campaign to date, despite suffering defeat in the Carabao Cup final against Ten Hag’s side back in February.
Having kept their top-four hopes alive with a 2-1 win away to Nottingham Forest before the international break, Eddie Howe’s side will eye revenge against the Reds later today (Sunday), with a chance to draw level on points with the Reds in the Premier League with a victory.
Following our meeting on Tyneside, the Magpies will play three consecutive away games, with trips to West Ham, Brentford and Aston Villa all to come.
Home clashes with Spurs and Southampton are broken up with a trip to Goodison Park in the final week of April, with Newcastle hopeful of securing their highest top-flight finish in over ten years.
