Everton v Newcastle match preview

Everton host Newcastle in Saturday’s teatime kickoff with both sides on the back of promising Premier League results.

Everton saw off Manchester United on Monday night despite having Idrissa Gueye sent off in unusual circumstances, while Newcastle beat Manchester City only to lose in Marseille in midweek.

David Moyes’ side have taken seven points from their last three games and could move up the table with a win while Newcastle are down in 14th going into the weekend.

Newcastle have lost their last three Premier League away games and came unstuck on the road again in France in the Champions League despite taking the lead through in-form Harvey Barnes.

Everton will be without suspended midfielder Gueye as he starts a ban for slapping team-mate Michael Keane, so Tim Iroegbunam is likely to come in.

Newcastle are waiting on Yoane Wissa who has impressed in training this week and could feature for the first time since his summer move from Brentford.

Joelinton was rested in Marseille and should come back in along with record signing Nick Woltemade.
