Newcastle vs Everton predictions

Injuries are really starting to take their toll on Newcastle but the Magpies should have enough in reserve to see off struggling Everton, who are winless in 12 Premier League games and embroiled in a relegation scrap.

Eddie Howe’s side should be full of confidence following Saturday’s 4-3 win over West Ham when they scored three goals in the final 13 minutes to turn a 3-1 deficit into victory.

The case for backing Newcastle would have been stronger if Anthony Gordon was not suspended and their injury list includes first-teamers Nick Pope, Sven Botman, Joelinton and Callum Wilson.

However, at a shade of odds-on they are worth supporting given their dominance at home and Everton’s lack of confidence following a poor sequence of results.

Newcastle have won ten of their 15 home league games this term and two of their three defeats have come against title-chasing duo Liverpool and Manchester City.

The Magpies have beaten Arsenal, Aston Villa, Manchester United and Chelsea at home this season and they should be able to add Sean Dyche’s toiling Toffees to that list.

Everton won 3-0 in the reverse fixture at Goodison Park in December but they have won only two Premier League matches since, picking up just five points in their last 12 games.

Saturday’s 2-1 defeat at Bournemouth extended their winless run on the road to seven matches, with five of those outings resulting in defeat.

The visitors have scored only three goals in their last seven away matches and with Beto seemingly preferred to Dominic Calvert-Lewin they may struggle to capitalise on Newcastle’s mini-injury crisis.

While the ambitious Magpies will feel they are having a poor season despite being eighth, Everton are only three points above the relegation zone and West Ham are the only top-half team they have beaten on their travels this season.

Everton have suffered three successive defeats against West Ham, Manchester United and Bournemouth and that misery looks set to be extended at St James' Park, where Newcastle are always a force to be reckoned with.

Punters may be tempted to back goals given Newcastle’s recent exploits but seven of their ten home league wins this season have been recorded to nil and Everton have fired blanks in six of their 15 away matches.

Key stat

Seven of Everton's last nine matches were 0-0 at half-time.

Everton (4-5-1): Pickford; Coleman, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Harrison, Onana, Garner, Doucoure, McNeil; Beto.
Subs: Godfrey, Calvert-Lewin, Keane, Gueye, Patterson, Gomes, Chermiti, Young.

Newcastle vs Everton bet builder predictions

Over 1.5 Everton cards
The Toffees, who are winless in 12, are likely to be under maximum pressure and they are unlikely to escape St James' Park without a couple of cards.

Over 9.5 corners
Everton's last four matches have yielded 14, nine, 13 and 17 corners and there should be plenty more to come against Newcastle.

Harvey Barnes to score at any time
With Anthony Gordon suspended, Harvey Barnes looks set to start and he should be brimming with belief following his brace against West Ham on Saturday.
