Liverpool’s defence to be tested at Newcastle, as a basement battle looms at Goodison

From The Totally Football Show with James Richardson The Athletic

Jimbo welcomes Duncan Alexander, Charlie Eccleshare and Caoimhe O’Neill into the studio ahead of another intriguing Premier League weekend.

Liverpool’s worrying defence head to St James Park to take on top 4 rivals Newcastle while on Merseyside, Everton host Wolves in what’s been a miserable week for the Toffees.

There’s hope for the Hatters as Luton travel to Stamford Bridge and there’s some love for league leaders Brighton and in particular, Kaoru Mitoma.

Elsewhere, is it a bit early for Arsenal to be hanging on this much? And has Casemiro been on the Calippos?

Plus the biggest question posed on the pod, which is better - Home Alone or Home Alone 2?

Produced by Charlie Jones.
