Preview:

Everton will look to get back on track when they host Newcastle in the EFL Cup last 16, having suffered back-to-back defeats to Chelsea and Arsenal. The Toffees are now without a win in three matches and will be determined to make the most of their home advantage. Vitali Mykolenko picked up a knock against Arsenal, so Hayden Hackney is likely to step in, while both Dibling and Alcaraz are pushing for starting places. Everton have been relatively solid at home, conceding just 0.80 goals per game across their last five matches on their own turf.

Newcastle, meanwhile, have received a confidence boost after beating Crystal Palace 2-0. The Magpies could make several changes for this cup tie, with Jacob Ramsey, Anthony Elanga and Yoane Wissa all pushing for starts. They have been more effective away from home lately, winning three of their last five matches on the road and keeping clean sheets in three of those games. Their attacking threat should make this a competitive encounter.
