Saracens score five tries to win at Newcastle Red Bulls for their third victory in the Prem Rugby Cup.

Liverpool look to claim another vital three points in the race for top four and return to winning ways as they host Newcastle at Anfield.The Reds fell to a 3-2 defeat in their last Premier League

Four successive draws and the defeat to Bournemouth piled further pressure on Arne Slot, though that has been somewhat eased by emphatic European wins over Marseille and Qarabağ. The Reds enter the weekend in sixth having been leapfrogged by Manchester United and Chelsea.

Captain Bruno Guimaraes is in contention to play against Liverpool after missing the last two matches with an ankle problem.

Liverpool manager Arne Slot said his side cannot afford any more late lapses as they prepare to host Newcastle United in the Premier League on Saturday, saying every point is vital in their push for a top-four finish.

No side in the history of the competition have ever travelled as far as Eddie Howe's team will when they make the 2,529-mile journey to Azerbaijan for the first leg of their last 16 play-off against Qarabag next month. Players and staff, alike, are certainly getting used to life on the road again following their midweek trip to Paris.

Both clubs have become worse off since the £125m mega transfer, with Eddie Howe admitting the deal has ‘changed the dynamics’ of his squad before the sides meet on Saturday night

It took time for the hybrid system, which sometimes saw Newcastle go man to man and at others saw them drop into a 5-4-1 block, to prove effective, with the visitors eventually slowing PSG’s build-up play and restricting the home side’s effectiveness.
