Newcastle vs Everton Prediction & Betting Tips (2 April)

Quickly won by the Big 4 this season, Newcastle is currently 8th in the Premier League and still has a small chance of winning a European folding seat. After showing a real revival of form, the Magpies have fallen back into their chronic irregularity of late. Thus, they have only won 2 of their last 5 league matches, for 1 draw and 2 defeats. After falling to Chelsea 3-2, Newcastle reacted by overthrowing West Ham last weekend thanks to 3 goals scored in the last quarter of an hour 4-3. In great danger this season, Everton now occupies today 16th place in the Premier League with 1 game less and 3 units ahead of the first relegation.

Note that the Liverpool-based club received a withdrawal of 6 points from the Federation due to breach of financial rules. The Toffees have been struggling for several weeks now and have not won any of their last 12 league matches, 5 draws and 7 defeats. Everton remains on the back of losses suffered against West Ham 1-3, Manchester United 2-0 and Bournemouth last weekend 2-1.

For Newcastle, we must highlight the defections of the important Pope, Botman, Joelinton and Wilson (7 goals in PL) as well as the very promising midfielder Miley (17 years old). Also absent recently, the starting full-back Trippier is, for his part, uncertain while the essential Gordon (9 goals and 6 assists in PL) is suspended. Finally, midfielder Tonali is far from having served his suspension following his participation in illicit sports betting.

Gordon's absence should benefit Barnes who scored twice after coming on last weekend. On the attacking front should take place the very influential Isak (14 goals in 21 PL matches).
