Watford vs Burnley LIVE: Premier League latest score and goal updates from this afternoon’s 3pm fixtures

45+2 mins: Newcastle work a nice move to the edge of the Liverpool box before Almiron goes down under pressure from Matip and Robertson. Not enough in it for Andre Marriner.

That should be that for the first period.

45 mins: Two minutes of stoppage time at the end of the first half.

So far this game has gone exactly how Jurgen Klopp would have wanted. After a bright start from the hosts, Liverpool have dominated the remaining 40 minutes or so.

44 mins: Joelinton needs to be careful - he is really fired up out there. A nothing free-kick sees the Newcastle man have a nibble at Diaz after the ball has gone. He then shoves Jota and Keita.

YELLOWS. Andre Marriner books both Joelinton and Jota. Needless.

43 mins: From the resulting corner the ball drops to Milner on the edge of the box but his venomous drive drifts a couple of yards wide.

42 mins: Van Dijk does absolutely superbly to work his way out of trouble after a pressure pass from Alisson. There were three black and white shirts around the Dutch defender but he is able to evade their challenges and find Robertson with a bafflingly relaxed piece of play.

CHANCE! Liverpool then work the ball out wide to Henderson who sends a lovely cross in for Jota. The Portuguese forward swivels and heads towards the top corner but Dubravka is equal to it with the acrobatic save.

40 mins: DISALLOWED GOAL! Guimaraes slides Almiron in behind the Liverpool defence. He looks offside but plays on anyway. Alisson gets a fingertip to the ball but can’t stop Almiron from going around him and poking the ball home.

Then the flag goes up. He was a good few yards offside.

38 mins: Keita slides a pass into Mane 25 yards from goal. He looks up and tries to beat Guimaraes who gets his body across but commits a foul in the process.

Good opportunity to have a shot at goal for Liverpool - even without Salah and Alexander-Arnold.

It’s Henderson who tries his luck but it’s a good 10 yards wide of Dubravka’s left-hand post.

36 mins: CHANCE! Liverpool break as Newcastle are caught upfield. Diaz powers through the middle of the pitch and lays it off to Mane inside the area but his right-footed effort is too close to Dubravka and the Slovak can make a routine save.

Klopp has his head in his hands on the touchline. He knows that was a big chance to potentially put this game to bed before half-time.

34 mins: Shelvey clears the corner away but Liverpool have it back inside the Newcastle half. It’s becoming a little too much attack vs defence for Eddie Howe’s liking.

Liverpool well on top now.

32 mins: Henderson lofts a delightful pass over the top for Diaz. He feeds it back to Gomez who delivers a nice cross into the box but Newcastle clear.

Gomez has it back and tries a low cross which Burn turns behind for another Liverpool corner.
