Liverpool started the 2023/24 season with a 1-1 draw at Chelsea and then a 3-1 win over Bournemouth at Anfield. Mohamed Salah scored against Bournemouth to officially contribute to 200 Premier League goals (140 goals, 60 assists).
However, Liverpool do not rely on Salah alone. Luis Diaz has scored in both Liverpool's first two games. The Colombian could become the fourth Liverpool player to score in the first three games of the season, after Robbie Fowler, Daniel Sturridge and Sadio Mane.
Liverpool are off to a good start this season
Jurgen Klopp's army is extending the good form that lasted from the end of last season. Currently, The Kop are on a 13-match unbeaten streak in the Premier League and this is the longest streak in the current league.
During this period, Liverpool have picked up nine points from a loss, and three of them have come from a comeback against Bournemouth last weekend.
However, if Liverpool are led by Newcastle, the goal of coming back will be much more difficult. Newcastle have not lost in the last 22 matches where they have the advantage of leading.
Eddie Howe's teachers and students started this season extremely impressed with a 5-1 destructive victory over Aston Villa. But "Chicken" was pulled back to reality when he lost to defending champion Man City at Etihad without scoring a goal.
In the third round, Newcastle continued to meet a difficult opponent, Liverpool. In this match, history is not on the side of the St. James' Park.
Only Arsenal (34) have lost more to Liverpool in the Premier League than Newcastle (33). Liverpool is also the team that brings the highest number of goals conceded to "Chicken", with 133 goals.
