NEWCASTLE vs EVERTON - Preview

Everton got their first clean sheet in the last domestic match against Middlesborough, not through their solid defending, but by Boro's inept strike force. So it really depends on whether the Toffees can once again keep a clean sheet. But that guarantees no victory as well.

Everton's strike force is stuttering. 19 Million pounds have been spent on AJ and Yakubu with the latter scoring only one league goal. Moyes may finally choose to drop Yakubu as he had continue to exhibit he lazy style of playing that suits none of the players in the team.

Send in the hungrier players. Anichebe is all ready. Faddie is on form and his confidence is sky- high. As for the defence, I can't really put my finger on the problem but it may just be that they need Stubbsy back to provide that stability. He may not have terrifying speed, but his positioning is truly commendable.

Newcastle 1-1 Everton
