Everton v Newcastle predictions

Everton have responded positively since their ten-point deduction and can chalk up back-to-back Premier League wins for the first time this season by defeating injury-ravaged Newcastle at Goodison Park.

Nine days after learning of their devastating punishment, Everton had to stomach the crushing disappointment of a 3-0 defeat at home to Manchester United. But there were encouraging elements to that performance with the Toffees winning the shot count 24-9, and they followed up with a 1-0 success at Nottingham Forest which dragged them to within two points of the safety line.

Tuesday's defeats for relegation rivals Burnley and Luton brought further good news, meaning a victory over Newcastle will be enough to lift the Merseysiders out of the bottom three.

Everton's home record has been surprisingly poor with only four points gained from seven games. Goodison has a well-earned reputation as a difficult venue for visiting teams but the early-season atmosphere at the stadium was affected by supporter frustration and discontent.

There was a need for the whole club to pull together and that happened in an instant when the Premier League laid down Everton's punishment. Passion in the stands was evident from the start of the Manchester United game and it took a stupendous goal from Alejandro Garnacho to quieten things down.

Newcastle will be faced with a similarly noisy environment and their injury-hit group may struggle to come up with a magic moment. The Magpies have got used to going into battle without several key players but their problems deepened at the weekend when goalkeeper Nick Pope was forced off with a shoulder injury towards the end of a superb 1-0 victory at home to Manchester United.

Pope's replacement, Martin Dubravka, had a fairly quiet finish to the game as Newcastle ran out worthy winners, but he is likely to be less well protected on Merseyside. A patched-up Newcastle side dug incredibly deep at the weekend with nine of the ten outfield players starting and finishing the game.

Eddie Howe felt unable to switch things around without weakening the side and there is no respite for his stretched squad which needs to contest a further seven fixtures over the next 20 days.

Newcastle will try to take things step-by-step and do their utmost to replicate their weekend performance, but there is every chance of a dip in energy levels and the outcome could be similar to last month's trip to Bournemouth, when a tired display contributed to a 2-0 defeat. The timing of the fixture appears to be a godsend for Everton, who look decent value to register a precious three points.

Everton have won six of their last 11 home matches against Newcastle.

Everton v Newcastle bet builder predictions

Everton to win
Everton were worthy 1-0 victors at Nottingham Forest on Saturday and they can follow up with a home triumph over injury-hit Newcastle, who have won just one of six Premier League away games.

Under 3.5 goals
All of Everton's eight home games this season have generated fewer than four goals and the low-scoring trend is likely to continue.

Anthony Gordon to be carded
Anthony Gordon has collected six yellow cards this season and could be even more fired-up than usual against his former club.
