The team news is in at Goodison Park as Newcastle United eye their second away win of the Premier League season at Everton.
Eddie Howe has been forced to make one change from the side that beat Manchester United 1-0 on Saturday with the injured Nick Pope dropping out for Martin Dubravka. Everton have named an unchanged line-up from the side that beat Nottingham Forest 1-0 on Saturday.
Everton will move out of the relegation zone with a win against The Magpies at Goodison Park after being hit with a 10-point deduction last month. Newcastle have a depleted squad following consecutive league wins over Chelsea and Manchester United while Everton are looking to build the win at Nottingham Forest.
Andre Gomes has been ruled out of the match for The Toffees while Amadou Onana is a doubt. Newcastle have 12 players currently out for the match following Pope's dislocated shoulder.
Anthony Gordon scored the only goal of the game before limping off late on with a hip issue. The 22-year-old has since returned to training starts at Goodison Park.
The Magpies' previous visit to Goodison Park saw them claim a 4-1 win last season with Callum Wilson scoring a brace and further goals from Joelinton and Jacob Murphy. Fabian Schar had a late strike disallowed by VAR while Dwight McNeil grabbed a late consolation.
While a win for Everton would take them out of the bottom three, a win for Newcastle would take them back above Manchester United in the table and up to as high as fifth depending on Tottenham Hotspur's result against West Ham United this evening.

7. CM: Bruno Guimaraes
Newcastle United’s injury crisis has afforded Guimaraes the opportunity to shine and show his class in the middle of the park. The Brazilian has always been a key player since his arrival, but his great quality has really come to the fore in recent games. | Getty Images
8. CM: Joelinton
Joelinton scored in this fixture last season, a match that came just four days after he also netted in the demolition of Spurs. Joelinton’s physicality will be needed at Goodison Park this week. | AFP via Getty Images
