Newcastle vs Everton: Preview, predictions and lineups

A midweek slate of Premier League action kicks off at St James' Park as Newcastle host Everton on Tuesday night.

The Magpies continue to be struck down by injuries but head into their upcoming duel in high spirits having staged a dramatic turnaround to beat West Ham 4-3 on Saturday. Hero Harvey Barnes, who's endured a tough debut campaign at the club, will be given a chance to shine from the outset against the Toffees.

Newcastle's victory was a major pressure reliever on Eddie Howe, who would have come under fierce criticism had West Ham held on for all three points. Saturday's win leaves the Magpies on the cusp of the European spots.

Everton are in desperate need of respite after losing again at the weekend as Seamus Coleman's own goal consigned them to a 2-1 defeat at Bournemouth. The Toffees haven't won a Premier League game since Christmas, with their position towards the bottom of the table a precarious one. They've got to start picking up points soon with the pressure mounting on Sean Dyche.

Here's preview of Tuesday night's duel on Tyneside.
