Match day thread - NUFC v Everton

[Toondes]

Everton (h)

Newcastle's final home game of 2019 sees them host Carlo Ancelotti's Toffees in a non-televised 3pm kick-off this afternoon.

This game is the first one covered by the club's free part-season ticket offer and with the 2,600 tickets available to home fans on a match by match basis sold, this is nominally sold out.

NUFC: Matt Ritchie, Jamaal Lascelles and Allain Saint-Maximin are unavailable, with news on the condition of Paul Dummett, Javier Manquillo, Ki and Ciaran Clark still to be confirmed.

EFC: The Toffees will be without Alex Iwobi and Morgan Schneiderlin.

A 1-0 home win over Burnley on Boxing Day lengthened Everton's unbeaten league record to four games.

Away from Goodison this season they have won just once; 2-1 at Southampton. Points came at Palace and Manchester United with losses at Villa, Bournemouth, Burnley, Brighton, Leicester and Liverpool.

Ancelotti's last visit to Gallowgate was as Chelsea boss in November 2010, his side recovering from conceding an early goal to Andy Carroll and earning a 1-1 draw.

That was one of three meetings with Newcastle that season and we remained unbeaten in all of them - drawing the away league game 2-2 and recording a 4-3 win at Stamford Bridge in the League Cup.

Everton weren’t good against Burnley, can see this being a 0-0 or 1-1.

[The Deluded Pablo Diego Jose Francisco]

It will be Ancelotti's first game... so an Everton win.

[beatski]

We going 532?

[UlversToon]

Don't know why, probably alcohol, but I fancy us for this one.

2-1 Toon (Shelvey & Joelinton)

[Speedo]

Stream anyone?

[The Deluded Pablo Diego Jose Francisco]

That really was a Christmas miracle wasn't it

[bodacious benny]

If Miggy could finish he definitely wouldn’t be playing for us

[Donkey Toon]

f*** me that was a scramble!

[Donkey Toon]

Feck it!

[UlversToon]

FFS!

[UlversToon]

More Christmas presents!

[Hjl]

i hate everyone and everything

[UlversToon]

Despite my prediction I can't see us coming back to win this one.

[Donkey Toon]

How can we be playing 3-5-2 and yet seemingly have zero presence in midfield?

Appalling performance so far.

[Donkey Toon]

Almiron off the post! Unlucky.

[bodacious benny]

Sounds like we’re getting better.

[UlversToon]

Sounds like we’re getting better.

It would be difficult to get worse!

[UlversToon]

Need to score before half-time whilst we're on top.
