Newcastle United vs Everton team news and expert analysis
The club from Newcastle upon Tyne played in the Champions League playoffs in the spring. However, they finished the Premier League season with 49 points in only 12th place, while Eddie Howe left in the summer and a number of players were sold. Nevertheless, the new manager, Yaissle, began his tenure in England with an unbeaten run. However, their results declined noticeably from mid-September onward. They did beat Crystal Palace 2-0 in the most recent round, but this week they lost 1-3 to the same opponent in the League Cup.
The Liverpool-based team collected the same number of points as their current opponents in 2025/2026, but finished 13th on tiebreakers. They made a strong start to the new season, suffering their first defeat only in October against Chelsea. They then also lost to Arsenal, as could reasonably have been expected.
Wissa and company score 1.5 goals per game, but concede noticeably more — 1.75. Moyes' men are more pragmatic, though when they score once against the opposition, they concede an average of 1.13 goals.
