Liverpool legend Ian Rush says they must be wary of today's visit to Newcastle.

Rush has identified Bruno Guimaraes as a danger player.

“Newcastle away on Saturday early afternoon is a dangerous game for Liverpool to come in to on the back of a European game and Klopp will have to be very careful about how he approaches this match," the Welshman told gambling.com.

“They're flying at the minute and their home support is as good as anyone's in the country so they'll all be bang up for a crack at one of the big two to get a true measure of where they're at.

“They've gone from 19th to 9th under Eddie Howe, who has his team working really hard and playing some good stuff," he claimed. “If they can beat Liverpool this weekend, they'll prove to themselves that they can compete with the best, which could increase their expectations ahead of next season.

“Bruno Guimaraes looks like a hell of a signing, the fans love him already and you can see his confidence growing with every performance at the moment. He's one Liverpool will have to keep quiet this Saturday."
