Latest Newcastle vs Everton team information
Alexander Isak missed the Arsenal game due to a minor muscle injury, but this is believed to be a precautionary measure. He is likely to feature in this crucial game.
Even if Isak doesn't play, Callum Wilson could be the ideal replacement, having scored eight goals against Everton in 10 meetings.
Kieran Trippier is still uncertain to return after a minor calf injury, while the trio of Lewis Hall, Joelinton and Matt Targett are definitely absent due to injury.
For Everton, Jake O'Brien returned from the previous round, but Jarrad Branthwaite picked up a hamstring injury, as did James Tarkowski, who ended his season early. Michael Keane will continue to start after a solid performance against Fulham.
There are rumours that Jordan Pickford may miss out to support his beloved Sunderland in the play-off final a day later, but with the North East spirit, Pickford could be the most determined man in the Everton squad to stop Newcastle from reaching the Champions League.
Captain Seamus Coleman is likely to have played his final game as a professional after sustaining a thigh injury and will miss this game. Loan players Jesper Lindstrom and Orel Mangala will also miss the game.

Latest Newcastle vs Everton football commentary
In the most intense race for European football in Premier League history, five teams still have a chance to qualify for the Champions League in the final round. Man City are in the lead, while three teams, Newcastle, Chelsea and Nottingham Forest, are level on points and waiting for their opponents to stumble. Aston Villa also have a chance.
Newcastle are one of three teams level on points and will have to hope Chelsea or Forest drop points when they go head-to-head, while Eddie Howe's side need Manchester United to stop Villa from winning.
If Everton surprise and beat Newcastle, Villa only need a draw at Old Trafford to overtake the Magpies. The fragile situation makes this match one of the highlights of the final round.
Newcastle are still favourites in the race, with Opta pegging them at over 80% chance of finishing in the top five, largely thanks to a run of six consecutive home wins in the Premier League.
The St James' Park outfit have also enjoyed strong finishes, winning eight of their last 10 games. However, their last meeting with Everton on the final day of the season was a bittersweet one – in 2011-12, Newcastle needed a win and waited for Tottenham to slip up to secure a top-four finish, but lost 3-1 at Goodison Park.
Manager David Moyes will lead Everton back to this stadium, where they had a streak of 6 wins in 9 visits from 2011 to 2019. However, in the last 4 visits to St James' Park, Everton only won 1 point.
Everton’s last visit here was positive, as they held Newcastle to a draw thanks to a late penalty from Dominic Calvert-Lewin. The first leg was also dramatic, with Anthony Gordon denied from the spot by Jordan Pickford – a Sunderland fan since childhood.
Everton are certain to finish 13th regardless of the result, but if they win they will finish with three consecutive wins for the first time since the 1980s.
Everton followed up their comeback win over Fulham with a 2-0 win over Southampton at Goodison Park in their farewell game at the iconic stadium. However, there were concerns that the team had run out of steam after that emotional moment. They have also had a poor run of form in the final round, winning just once in the last eight seasons – although that was the crucial win that secured their 2023 survival against Bournemouth.
