Liverpool team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Newcastle United

Sports Mole rounds up Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Saturday's Premier League tie with Newcastle United.

Liverpool will be looking to make it five wins from their first five games when they host Newcastle United at Anfield on Saturday afternoon.

The Reds cruised past Burnley before the international break, recording their first clean sheet of the season in the 3-0 win at Turf Moor.

Newcastle have had a mixed start to the campaign, handing struggling Watford their first point in a 1-1 draw in their last game and losing 3-1 against newly-promoted Norwich City, but did record a shock 1-0 win away against Tottenham Hotspur - their only Premier League victory so far.

Aside from the trip to Carrow Road, the Magpies' games have been very low-scoring, with no side scoring more than once, but despite this, Newcastle have failed to keep more than one clean sheet.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest injury and suspension news for Liverpool.

The midfielder is closing in on a return and Jurgen Klopp appears positive about the Guinean's progress. However, the game against Newcastle will still come too soon for him to be involved.
