Calvert-Lewin To Start | 4-2-3-1 Everton Predicted Lineup Vs Newcastle United

Everton will lock horns with Newcastle United at St. James’ Park on Tuesday night as they try to secure all three points on the road. The Toffees managed to earn a convincing 4-1 win over Brentford in the FA Cup last Saturday which will give them some confidence ahead of this league game.

Frank Lampard will set his team up in a 4-2-3-1 formation and is expected to make a few changes to his first XI for this contest. Both Donny van de Beek and Dele Alli could play from the start but Lampard will be sweating on the fitness of Dominic Calvert-Lewin who is a significant concern for this midweek game.

4-2-3-1 Everton Predicted Lineup To Face Newcastle United

Defence

Jordan Pickford will feature in between the sticks for the Merseyside outfit after shipping in one goal versus the Bees in his last domestic outing.

Michael Keane will operate along with Yerry Mina at the centre of Everton’s backline as they hope to keep a solid shape at the back during the 90 minutes.

Seamus Coleman will function at right-back while Vitaliy Mykolenko looks to give a good account of himself as the left-back. Both of them will have to pick and choose their moments to get forward and join in on the attack.

Mason Holgate will be available for selection on the bench as he provides cover for the centre-back spots.

Midfield

Allan and Donny van de Beek will anchor the midfield for the Toffees. Their main responsibility would be to get a stranglehold in the game at the centre of the park.

Demarai Gray will look to impress down the left flank while Richarlison tries to make a difference from the right. Dele Alli will function in the number ten position as a free-flowing attacking midfielder.

Andre Gomes might have to settle for a spot on the bench as he waits for his chance to shine in the second half if needed.

Attack

Calvert-Lewin is expected to spearhead Lampard’s attack if he can pass a late fitness test. He will be desperate to get his name on the scoresheet in midweek.

Cenk Tosun will be named on the bench and could come on to make an impact in the second half if needed.
