Everton predicted line-up vs Newcastle - as Sean Dyche rips up his midfield amid three changes - gallery

Everton team predicted to face Newcastle United in the Premier League at St James' Park.

Everton look to end their woeful run of form when they make the trip to Newcastle United (19.30 GMT).

The Toffees haven't won for 12 Premier League matches - an unwanted record that matches Mike Walker's horrendous streak in the 1993-1994 season - following a 2-1 loss at AFC Bournemouth last weekend.

Sean Dyche has claimed that he is not bothered about such a record and he's more focused on the bigger picture. The Goodison Park boss said: "It is a season’s work, it is always a season’s work. Runs come and go, there is noise around runs but I have had good runs, I have had indifferent runs, I have had record-breaking runs, it means absolutely nothing. I wouldn’t tell you about all the records that I have had, I wouldn’t bother you with that, it wouldn’t mean anything."

However, the performance in the defeat by the Cherries has to improve if Everton are to ensure they're not dragged into a third successive relegation battle.

Dyche will surely be considering changes to his starting line-up against a Newcastle side who earned a stunning 4-3 victory over West Ham United last time out. Ahead of kick-off, here's the Everton team predicted to face the Magpies at St James' Park.
