Newcastle United
Starting with the hosts, watching their EFL Cup adventure come to a thumping end on Thursday night as they slumped to a 3-1 defeat away at Monday's guests, Newcastle find themselves in the midst of an extended struggle since returning from September's international break. Returning from the extended three-week break with a 4-1 drumming against Premier League newcomers Coventry, Matthias Jaissle's side have now lost three of their previous four appearances across all competitions. Seeking some much-welcomed revenge on Monday night, Newcastle are also searching for some essential defensive grit. Last seen at St. James' Park getting hit with a 1-0 loss against Aston Villa, Jaissle's men have mustered just a sole clean sheet from any of their last seven consecutive Premier League outings – a run that stems back to the end of August.

Hit with yet another injury setback prior to September's international break, England international Valentino Livramento remains on the sidelines with a knee issue. However, despite missing each of Newcastle's last two appearances over the past fortnight, summer recruit Matias Fernandez-Pardo could return to Jaissle's squad here.
Bagging what turned out to be a consolation EFL Cup strike on Thursday night, former Brighton defender Dan Burn should keep his spot at the heart of Newcastle's defence. Registering four direct goal contributions in his first eight Premier League appearances so far this season (two goals, two assists), Harvey Barnes will play a leading role in the final third.
Everton
As for the visitors, producing a thumping performance at the Hill Dickinson on Thursday night as they secured that 3-1 EFL Cup victory, Everton will be dreaming of a repeat performance when they travel to Tyneside. Drawing a line under their three-match winless run, David Moyes' men are now searching for some welcomed stability. Opening the weekend fixtures sat in the bottom-half of the Premier League standings, the former West Ham boss is still waiting on his squad to register consecutive top-flight wins. It's also worth highlighting, the Toffees have continued to show some extended issues on the road. Last seen outside of Merseyside getting hit with a 2-0 defeat against reigning Premier League champions Arsenal, Everton have remarkably failed to claim a single victory away at top-flight opposition since a rollercoaster 3-2 win at St. James' Park back on February 28th.
Everton Team News
Dropped from Moyes' EFL Cup squad on Thursday night following a reported “breach of club disciplineâ€, it remains to be seen if Manchester City loanee Jack Grealish will return to Everton's travelling squad. However, fellow England international Jarrad Branthwaite is expected to return on Monday night after a stint on the sidelines due to concussion protocols.
Registering seven goals across all competitions so far this season and the only recognised number nine in Moyes' ranks, French starlet Thierno Barry will spearhead Everton's attack. Completing a late summer switch from Crystal Palace, Brennan Johnson could be handed an immediate full recall at St. James' Park.
Newcastle United vs Everton Key Factors to Consider
- When Newcastle and Everton met for an EFL Cup showdown at the Hill Dickinson on Thursday night, the Toffees claimed a 3-1 victory on home soil.
- In fact, Everton have won three of their previous four meetings against Monday's hosts across all competitions.
- Including that 3-1 loss in the blue half of Merseyside on Thursday night, Newcastle have lost three of their previous four matchups across all fronts.
- Everton have failed to register a single Premier League victory away from the Hill Dickinson since a 3-2 win at st. James' Park on February 28th.

Conclusion
Extending on their EFL Cup adventure on Thursday as they claimed a deserved 3-1 victory on home soil, Everton will be dreaming of a repeat performance on Tyneside. Looking to find a route into the top-half of the Premier League standings, Moyes' men will also be excited by a stellar recent record against Monday's hosts. Winning three of their previous four meetings across all competitions, Everton will be confident of exploiting a Newcastle defence who have registered just a sole Premier League clean sheet at St. James' Park so far this calendar year.
