Everton welcome Newcastle United to the Hill Dickinson Stadium on Saturday evening, looking to secure a third consecutive Premier League victory for the first time this season.
David Moyes’ side are in good form after a gritty 1-0 win over Manchester United at Old Trafford on Monday night, a result earned despite playing 70 minutes with ten men.
They face a Newcastle United team struggling for consistency; the Magpies lost 2-1 to Marseille in the Champions League midweek, dampening the optimism from their impressive victory over Manchester City last weekend.
David Moyes must make changes in midfield. Key enforcer Idrissa Gueye is suspended following his red card against Manchester United. Consequently, Tim Iroegbunam is expected to step into the midfield anchor role.
In addition, the Toffees have lost captain Seamus Coleman to a hamstring injury. He joins Jarrad Branthwaite, Nathan Patterson, and Merlin Röhl on the sidelines.
Eddie Howe is dealing with his own injury problems. Unfortunately, Kieran Trippier is out for a month with a hamstring issue. Furthermore, Yoane Wissa and Will Osula remain unavailable.
However, Nick Woltemade is set to return to the starting lineup. Meanwhile, Harvey Barnes will likely retain his place on the left flank after scoring the winner against Manchester City.
Everton are enjoying their best spell of the campaign, sitting 11th in the table. They are unbeaten in their last three matches, taking seven points from nine. Crucially, they have kept back-to-back clean sheets.
The Toffees will be confident of extending their run against a Newcastle side that has struggled on the road domestically.
Newcastle occupy 14th place and have been plagued by inconsistency. While their 2-1 win over Manchester City was a highlight, they have lost their last two Premier League away games.
Furthermore, they are winless in nine league games on the road. Fatigue could also be a factor after their midweek excursion to France.
Everton predicted XI: Pickford; O’Brien, Keane, Tarkowski, Mykolenko; Garner, Iroegbunam; Ndiaye, Dewsbury-Hall, Grealish; Barry
Newcastle United predicted XI: Pope; Livramento, Schar, Thiaw, Burn; Guimaraes, Tonali, Joelinton; Barnes, Woltemade, Gordon
The match will be broadcast live in the UK on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League. Coverage starts at 5:00 pm GMT.
