I've covered a fair few Liverpool games as Anfield but this is the busiest I've seen it with the streets all around the ground a sea of red.

The usually relatively straightforward walk to collect my media pass was a bit more tricky this time with thousands crowded to see the team bus arrive, and when the champions did appear it prompted lots of red flares and chants of "Championis".

An incredible atmosphere already.

Will Still has been announced as Southampton's new manager.

The 32-year-old Englishman revealed last weekend he was leaving French club Lens to return to the UK.

Still is expected to be in the stands at St Mary's for bottom club Southampton's final Premier League game of the season against Arsenal.

He has signed a three-year contract with the Saints, who will return to the Championship next season after their relegation.

Most goals, most assists and Premier League player of the season and, unless a miracle occurs, Mo Salah will be picking up the golden boot and playmaker award along with his Premier League winners medal later on.

Newcastle are fourth in the Premier League table and very much in contention for Champions League football.

They face Everton at St James' Park and know that a win will take them into Europe's top tier competition, barring an unlikely goal difference swing.

There were the usual scenes around St. James' Park hours before kick-off as black and white shirts swarmed Newcastle city centre.

And there are huge roars coming from the area outside the stadium where Eddie Howe and his Newcastle players arrive.

The whole of Tyneside can reach out and touch the golden ticket that gives entry to the Champions League. Can Everton spoil the party?

Newcastle United

For Newcastle, the task is simple. Win, and they will be in the Champions League next season.

They enter today fourth in the table, ahead of Chelsea and Aston Villa on goal difference and one point clear of Nottingham Forest.

A draw could be enough, but Eddie Howe's side would need need Villa to fail to win at Manchester United.

Defeat to Everton will make things difficult. Not mathematically impossible but definitely unlikely. In that scenario, Villa and one of Chelsea or Forest would have to both lose.

I am told Andre Onana will be on the bench this afternoon with Altay Bayindir taking over in goal.

This might be the last Premier League game of the season but United's players have a busy week ahead.

Onana, Harry Maguire and Diogo Dalot are scheduled to go to India for a promotional visit on Thursday.

The rest of Ruben Amorim's squad will fly to Kuala Lumpur immediately after today's game for the first of two money raising friendly matches.

The first, against a south east Asia select side is on Wednesday, the second, is against the Hong Kong national side on Friday.
