What is a season opener?
A season opener is the first competitive match a team plays in a new season. For Newcastle, this is against Liverpool on Sunday. New signings like Dedic often hope to feature in these early games to make an immediate impact, especially if other players, such as Tino Livramento, are recovering from injury.
