Liverpool are on the road next in league action as they make their travels to the English capital come Sunday to face a high-flyer in Tottenham Hotspur.
The Merseysiders clinched a convincing 3-1 win over basement side Newcastle United on Thursday night at Anfield despite going behind early on through a Jonjo Shelvey strike.
Goals, however, from Diogo Jota, Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold secured the three points for the title contenders who keep pace with the league leaders Manchester City at the summit.
Spurs have found stability under new management with Antonio Conte making things work in his return to the Premier League as the Londoners have collected ten points out of a possible 12 since the Italian took charge.
