Newcastle captain Fabricio Coloccini has returned to training following a back injury but this match will come too soon for the Argentine.
Tiote's return means James Perch is likely to drop to the bench, though Alan Pardew is likely to retain the rest of the starting eleven which earned a 1-1 draw against West Brom last Saturday.
For Liverpool, Brendan Rodgers' begins life without Luis Suarez after the Uruguay international was handed a 10-match suspension for biting Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic.
Daniel Sturridge, who scored and assisted Suarez's equaliser against Chelsea last Sunday, is likely to start in attack.
Fabio Borini has returned to training and could return to the squad for the first time since he dislocated his shoulder against Swansea in February.
