Match Preview
Everton will be looking to get back on track at Goodison Park when they return to home action on Thursday. The Toffees were easily beaten by Man United in their previous home match, but they recovered to secure a 1-0 success against Nottingham Forest at the City Ground last weekend. A victory on Thursday would lift the Toffees out of the bottom three.
Newcastle remain in a strong position to challenge for a European finish this term, and they could move into the top four spots with a victory on the road this week. The Magpies come into this match after winning each of their previous two, which includes a success against Man United last weekend.

Everton’s overall record in this fixture would be a pressing concern ahead of Thursday, as they have suffered five defeats in five against the Magpies. That is as many defeats as they had suffered in their last 24 matches against their rivals. Newcastle also landed a commanding 4-1 victory in this fixture last term, and will be looking for back-to-back wins at Goodison for the first time since 1960.
The Toffees have really struggled in home matches under Sean Dyche, which is evident from the fact that they have won just two of their last 12. Both of their home wins over that period were picked up against Bournemouth. Meanwhile, Newcastle have won each of their last three midweek matches in the Premier League.
Everton vs Newcastle Prediction
Newcastle boasts the better record in this fixture, and they have excelled in midweek matches over the last two seasons. Therefore, we will be siding with the Magpies landing maximum points at Goodison Park on Thursday.
