Newcastle and Everton meet in Premier League after cup clash

Newcastle and Everton meet in Premier League after cup clash

Everton advanced past Newcastle in the Carabao Cup on October 29, setting up another meeting between the teams five days later.

Newcastle host Everton in the Premier League at St James’ Park on Monday, November 2.

Newcastle are just one point ahead of Everton, who sit 14th and are three points clear of the relegation zone.

A win would move either team into the top half of the table.

Everton have not won away in the league since February 28, when they won at Newcastle, but have won on their last two league visits there.

Jack Grealish is absent from Everton’s squad because of fitness, while Newcastle have lost three of their past four matches.

The match is scheduled to kick off at 20:00 GMT.
