Local goalkeeper Karl Darlow held the tie with brilliant interventions in the final minutes.
Newcastle, with Argentine defender Federico Fernández as the starter, added their second point in the last four games. Their clearest opportunity came 12 minutes from the end, when goalkeeper Alisson Becker deflected defender Ciaran Clark’s head butt to the ground.
It is Liverpool’s first goalless game so far in the Premier League and it stretched the lead over guard Manchester United to three.
