Newcastle vs Everton preview – by Joe Prince-Wright
Newcastle are through to the UEFA Champions League knockout stages after demolishing Qarabag in the last 16 last week, while Eddie Howe’s side lost 2-1 against Manchester City in the league last weekend. Newcastle are one point behind Everton in the table heading into this weekend and despite falling slightly this season, the Magpies would love to force their way into the top seven.

Everton played well against Man United at home on Monday but failed to take their chances and lost 1-0. That pretty much sums up their season. David Moyes’ side are still ahead of schedule in terms of development, but if they add a clinical finisher to their ranks they are poised for a top-six finish next season.
Newcastle team news, focus
Howe has been injured throughout the season and Newcastle have been dealt a major blow with captain and star midfielder Bruno Guimaraes out until April. Tino Livramento, Fabian Schar, Lewis Miley and Emil Krafth are all out, while Jacob Ramsey is doubtful. It will be intriguing to see how Newcastle line up in attack with Nick Woltemade finding himself left out of the squad in recent weeks, while Yoane Wissa needs a run of games to get going again. Anthony Gordon and Harvey Barnes have been superb in recent games.
Everton team news, focus
Carlos Alcaraz is out, while Jake O’Brien will return from suspension and shift back to right-back with James Garner returning to central midfield. For Everton it’s all about getting the right combinations in attack as Beto could start while Thierno Barry has struggled a bit in recent weeks.
Newcastle vs Everton Prediction
This looks like a draw between two very even teams. Newcastle 1-1 Everton.
