Fixture: Newcastle United vs Everton
Date: Sunday 25 May 2025
Kick-off: 16:00 BST
Venue: St. James' Park

The match at St. James' Park is expected to be a closely fought contest, with both teams needing to end their seasons on a high. Newcastle will be eager to secure a top-five finish and a spot in the Champions League, while Everton will want to end their season in a strong manner and build momentum for the next campaign.

Newcastle's home advantage and the urgency to secure a European spot might give them the edge. However, Everton's recent form and the feel-good factor from last week's Goodison send-off suggest they could pose a challenge. Expect a tight, tactical battle with both teams looking to exploit their opponent's weaknesses.

Match Prediction: Newcastle 2-1 Everton

The Magpies have been typically strong at home this season, with Chelsea the latest team to leave with nothing. Newcastle's performance will be crucial in their final home game of the season, as they aim to secure a top-five finish and a spot in the UEFA Champions League.

Newcastle and Everton have a competitive history, but it's the Toffees who have had the upper hand over the last decade or so. That being said, Everton haven't won at St. James' Park since 2019, so they're the underdogs heading into this one.

Newcastle haven't won against Everton since 2022, so history suggests a closely contested battle to bring the season to a close.

Pope; Livramento, Schär, Botman, Burn; Guimarães, Tonali, Miley; Murphy, Wilson, Barnes

Pickford; Young, Keane, O’Brien, Mykolenko; Gueye, Garner; McNeil, Doucoure, Ndiaye; Beto

• Bruno Guimarães vs Idrissa Gueye: The midfield battle between these two will be crucial. Guimarães has been a driving force for Newcastle, while Gueye's defensive prowess could disrupt Newcastle's rhythm.
• Callum Wilson vs Jordan Pickford: With Isak potentially out, Wilson's performance will be vital for Newcastle. Pickford's shot-stopping ability will be tested if Wilson gets opportunities.
• Harvey Barnes vs Vitaliy Mykolenko: Barnes' pace and directness on the wing could pose problems for Everton's defence, particularly if Mykolenko struggles to contain him.
  

Newcastle and Everton have a long-standing rivalry, with their first meeting dating back to 1893.
