The penultimate Premier League match of the day sees Everton play host to Newcastle United.

Kick-off at the Hill Dickinson Stadium is at 17:30 GMT.

TEAM NEWS

Eddie Howe’s decision over which goalkeeper to start has been made easier for him thanks to injury.

Nick Pope misses out, so in comes Aaron Ramsdale for his first league start.

Compared to Gameweek 12, Sandro Tonali, Fabian Schar and Jacob Murphy also drop out of the side as Lewis Miley, Dan Burn and Anthony Elanga step up to the starting XI.

Burn is back from a one-match ban.

Having returned from injury as a false nine in Marseille, Anthony Gordon is only among the substitutes.

Everton’s two changes are both enforced, thanks to suspension and injury.

Tim Iroegbunam and Jake O’Brien come into the starting line-up for the absent Idrissa Gueye and Seamus Coleman.

LINE-UPS

Everton XI: Pickford, O’Brien, Tarkowski, Keane, Mykolenko, Garner, Iroegbunam, Ndiaye, Dewsbury-Hall, Grealish, Barry.

Subs: Travers, King, McNeil, Beto, Dibling, Alcaraz, Aznou, Welch, Campbell.

Newcastle United XI: Ramsdale, Livramento, Thiaw, Burn, Hall, Guimaraes, Miley, Joelinton, Elanga, Woltemade, Barnes.

Subs: Ruddy, Schar, Tonali, Gordon, J.Murphy, Willock, A.Murphy, Ramsey, Neave.

      There's always debates about this but he's one of Howe's favourites. If I had him I wouldn't sell him. Be aware of the yellow card count.

      Livramento probably a decent option too. I love Hall but unsure on mins.

      Foden always has the potential to go big, bigger that Doku anyway.

      Schade & Dango is a flip of the coin really, when you're playing a one-off game with players you wouldn't own in a month of Sundays

      I'm not on FH, so I haven't put as much thought into it as others, but I'd probably have gone with Foden and Schade because of better xMins.
      That being said, the variance is too high on a single GW, no need to beat yourself up.

    The usual pain with Reinjders and Semenyo (who i never have a free transfer available for!) blanking again compounded by Pope being dropped with newcastle on a CS.

    At least i used my FT wisely this week to swap Wolt to Thiago, well so far its been great anyway.

      His nickname is Woltemessi. Even though he is tall, he is actually excellent with his feet. I am considering keeping him and selling Mateta for Thiago later.

        I think generally they are looking like the defence we feared they may be, the one that lost most of their defence in the summer. Petrovic is looking very much like the one who showed briefly for Chelsea rather than the one at Strasbourg
