Premier League action continue this Monday as Newcastle United host historical bogey team Everton in a fascinating clash highlighting mid-table outfits fighting for a top-half lifeline. Remember Everton’s 3-1 EFL Cup victory in their last competitive encounter just few days ago? James Garner, Hayden Hackney, and Thierno Barry all got on the scoresheet to turn the traveling Geordie crowd completely silent. The Magpies will be desperate for a vastly improved result this week to kickstart a proper climb up the domestic table. Whether they can actually dismantle Everton's resilient defensive block or completely overwhelm their midfield setup remains to be seen. Let's look at the best betting angles.

Historically, Everton owns this fixture lately with four wins to Newcastle's single victory over their last seven competitive matchups. Two games finished level. Interestingly, the Toffees also claimed a 3-2 league victory on their last trip to this stadium back in February. The average number of goals per game in this fixture stands at a healthy 2.7.
Newcastle United team overview
Newcastle United enters this one on the back of a bitterly disappointing 3-1 away defeat against Everton in the cup. The Magpies look completely out of sync right now.
Matthias Jaissle’s men are finding consistency impossible to come by in their top-flight campaign, combining solid displays with catastrophic results. They sit outside the top six in the league table and have suffered three defeats in their last four matches.
Their home record at St. James' Park has historically been a formidable weapon, but a recent 1-0 defeat to Aston Villa shattered their six match unbeaten run.
Harvey Barnes remains a critical bright spark up front, leading their creative metrics with four goals and two assists across all competitions this season. He needs far more help from his teammates.
Defensively, they look exceptionally vulnerable, missing right-back Tino Livramento to a knee injury while forward William Osula faces a late fitness check after twisting his ankle in midweek.

Everton team overview
Everton prepares for this one on the back of a cup triumph that ended a three match winless run. The Toffees are definitely riding an emotional wave.
David Moyes’s men have managed to patch over their league worries with two successive cup wins. Despite their cup fairy-tale, life in the Premier League has predictably exposed massive cracks, leaving them lingering in 11th place with a mere 10 points from their opening eight games.
Their away form is a bit terrifying for their own supporters. They are currently on a four-match winless run on the road, though three of them finished level.
Thierno Barry remains their undisputed talisman up front, netting three goals in the league and three in the League Cup. He's clinical on his day.
Fortunately, Moyes's squad has avoided catastrophic new injuries, though they must manage center-back Jarrad Branthwaite carefully as he recovers from a recent concussion.

Prediction
Both teams are defensively fragile. Newcastle can't seem to stop leaking chances at home, while Everton completely struggles to maintain a tight shape on their travels. I once watched this fixture turn into a totally frantic tactical war, and this current run of form screams an open, high-scoring affair. A 2-2 draw looks completely realistic.
Three reasons we expect over 2.5 goals in this game
- Everton are without a clean sheet in four, shipping exactly two goals in three of them.
- Newcastle United finished only one of their last six competitive games without conceding.
- All the last four meetings between Newcastle United and Everton finished with over 3.5 goals.
