Everton v Newcastle United

Everton welcome back Abdoulaye Doucoure, who sat out Wednesday's draw with Leicester through suspension.

Newcastle boss Steve Bruce must decide whether to hand a start to winger Allan Saint-Maximin, who has featured as a substitute in the last two games after a lengthy absence with Covid-19.

Federico Fernandez and Paul Dummett are again set to miss out through injury.

The visitors may also be without DeAndre Yedlin, who has not been involved in the last two matches, reportedly because of a work permit issue.
