Newcastle v LiverpoolSee All Odds

Bet Builder 1 - 0.5pt

Best odds of 2/1 at bet365 while publishing.

1st Selection: Florian Wirtz 1+ Fouls Committed

Florian Wirtz averaged 1 foul per game last season and committed 2 and 1 fouls in his two meetings with Newcastle, landing this selection on both occasions. His aggressive approach when pressing and trying to win the ball back can often see him commit fouls, particularly when arriving late into challenges against opposition midfielders and defenders.

2nd Selection: Lewis Hall 2+ Fouls Won

Lewis Hall's willingness to drive forward from left-back and carry the ball into tight, high-pressure areas makes him a player who regularly draws contact from opposition defenders. He averaged 1.9 fouls won per 90 minutes last season and, with Liverpool expected to bring plenty of intensity under new manager Andoni Iraola, Hall should have plenty of opportunities to win fouls. I really like this one.

3rd Selection: Ryan Gravenberch 1+ Fouls Won

Ryan Gravenberch averaged 1.35 fouls won per 90 minutes last season, with his ability to carry the ball through midfield often forcing opponents to commit themselves in order to stop him. He is particularly effective at driving through pressure from deeper areas, which can create opportunities to draw fouls. With Newcastle likely to look to disrupt Liverpool's midfield transitions, Gravenberch looks well placed to win at least one foul here.
