LIVERPOOL may have beaten the European champions and Premier League title holders in the past seven days - but Arne Slot warned this week will be even tougher.

Slot's side are nine points clear at the top of the Premier League after beating Manchester City on Sunday.
And they have one foot in the Champions League knock-out stages following the home win over Real Madrid last week (Cody Gakpo scoring, right).
Tonight they travel to Newcastle, a happy hunting ground for them. They have won four of their last six at St James' Park, their last defeat in 2015.
