Newcastle Team News

The game against the Red Devils was the fifth in a row in which the Newcastle players did not experience defeat. After that round, they remained in the sixth position in the Premier League standings with 15 points. They are four points behind the teams that are in the zone leading to next season’s Champions League.

If you take into account that Newcastle was mostly in the lower part of the table in the previous seasons, the results they record in this one are commendable. Since the arrival of Eddie Howe as head coach, the quality of this team’s play has been steadily increasing and progress is visible in every game.

Defense is the main weapon of the Magpies. They defend with discipline and sacrifice, and this is best confirmed by the fact that they are the only team in the league that conceded single-digit goals. Nick Pope conceded only nine goals, so Newcastle’s defense is the best in the entire championship.

Allan Saint-Maximin injured his hamstring again and is likely to miss this clash. Apart from him, Darlow, Isak, Ritchie, and Krafth are absent from earlier.

Eddie Howe on the defensive record:

"It's very pleasing. It's a compliment to the players and we very much have the mindset here that we want to defend as a team, right from the strikers back to the goalkeeper and you can see that in how we've played this season." pic.twitter.com/MBiMKEeZ6d

Everton Team News

On the other hand, the Toffees are in a bit of a crisis before visiting Newcastle. At home, they were defeated by Manchester United 1-2, and in London by Tottenham 0-2. The Everton players played solidly in certain moments of both matches, but greater continuity is needed to avoid defeats.

What particularly worries coach Frank Lampard are the distinct problems with realization. Their players scored only eight goals in the first 10 matches, which is a rather modest performance. Only Wolves, Nottingham Forest and Aston Villa have scored fewer goals than them in the championship so far.

One of the things that can please the coaching staff of this team is Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s recovery from injury. In the last two games, he came off the bench and is gradually getting into a competitive rhythm. When he is fully fit, Everton’s attack will be significantly more dangerous.

Anthony Gordon is likely to start against Newcastle. He missed the game with Tottenham due to suspension after picking up five yellow cards.

"It is a fine balance but Dom is getting to the stage where we can hopefully get more minutes out of him."
