The corresponding fixture last season ended 1-0 to Newcastle United thanks to a first-half Miguel Almiron strike.
Betting Tips
Newcaste United are certainly the side enjoying the better run of form at present and home advantage should carry Eddie Howe’s side over the line on Tuesday evening. A home win is backable at Evens.
All ten of Newcastle United’s Premier League games in 2024 have produced over 2.5 match goals at an average of 5.2 goals per game whilst both teams have scored in five of Everton’s last seven matches. Both teams to score is excellent value at 1/2 whilst over 2.5 match goals has just as much appeal at 4/7.
Alexander Isak has scored four goals in Newcastle United’s last four league games, including a double at the weekend. Once again the Swede will prove hugely popular in the various goalscorer markets. Isak is 4/1 to score first or 11/10 to score at any time.
