Newcastle will look to build on their much-needed victory at Crystal Palace when they face stuttering Everton for a place in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals on Thursday. Sunday’s 2-0 win at Selhurst Park saw the Magpies ease some of the growing pressure on new boss Matthias Jaissle following a run of three defeats in four games.
Now they go in search of further success when they face Everton twice in the space of four days, with the clubs also meeting at St James’ Park in the league on Monday. Everton head into those fixtures on the back of successive 2-0 losses against Chelsea and Arsenal , having previously been undefeated this season.
Newcastle won 4-1 on their last trip to Hill Dickinson Stadium and we fancy them to emerge victorious on this occasion too, with our opening Everton vs Newcastle prediction being the Magpies 23/20 to qualify.

Form Guides
Everton form guide
Everton started the season with an eight-match unbeaten run, winning four and drawing four, before coming unstuck against in-form London duo Chelsea and Arsenal . The Toffees were far from swept aside in either of those games, though, and they are sure to give Newcastle a run for their money in a fixture which could well go to penalties.
Only one of Everton’s 10 games this term has been settled with room to spare, which was their 4-0 Carabao Cup win at Preston , with David Moyes’ men showing their never-say-die spirit with comeback draws against Bournemouth , Manchester United and Hull .
Everton also netted a late winner in their last meeting with Newcastle , Thierno Barry’s 83rd-minute effort earning the visitors a 3-2 victory on Tyneside in February, and it is likely to be another close affair this time.
BTTS with over 3.5 goals in total @ 2/1 looks tempting, as does Barry to score at any time @ 13/8. The Frenchman struggled in the weekend defeat to Arsenal but has started every match this season and scored six goals, including a cup hat-trick at Preston .
Newcastle form guide
The Magpies appeared to have made light of the summer departures of key figures Eddie Howe , Bruno Guimaraes , Anthony Gordon and Sandro Tonali as they made a good start under Jaissle . Newcastle were unlucky not to claim victory in the German’s first match, Liverpool snatching a 2-2 draw with a stoppage-time penalty, but they were soon up and running.
Victories over West Brom , Spurs and Millwall along with a comeback draw against Bournemouth left them unbeaten in their opening five games and through to the Carabao Cup fourth round. However, things quickly began to go awry with three defeats in four games, going down 4-1 at Leeds and Coventry as well as a 1-0 loss at home to Aston Villa.
Beating Palace , thanks to second-half goals from William Osula and Harvey Barnes , got Newcastle back on track but they will be desperate now to make progress in the Carabao Cup , a competition then won in 2025 to lift their first major trophy in 56 years. Newcastle to progress on penalties is 5/1 this week, while we also fancy Barnes to follow up his weekend goal with another on Merseyside @ 9/4, which completes our Everton vs Newcastle betting tips.
