Everton vs Newcastle Prediction

Everton host Newcastle in the EFL Cup last 16 on 29 October 2026 at 22:45. The Toffees have lost back-to-back matches to Chelsea and Arsenal and sit without a win in three games. Newcastle arrive off a 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace and will field a reshuffled side for this cup tie, with Jacob Ramsey, Anthony Elanga, and Yoane Wissa pushing for starts. Everton will be without Vitali Mykolenko after he picked up a knock against Arsenal, with Hayden Hackney likely to replace him. Both Dibling and Alcaraz are in contention for the starting eleven.

Everton won three of the six most recent direct clashes, including a 3-0 home victory in 2015.
