Everton picked up their first win of the season last week but face a tough task in gameweek 7 as they take on Newcastle who are off the back of a draw with Man City
Everton vs Newcastle Prediction
Everton finally secured their first league victory of the season last weekend, coming from behind to beat Crystal Palace at Goodison Park.
The Toffees have picked up four points from their last two matches and will be hopeful of more here.
Everton currently have the second worst defensive record in the league, conceding 15.
Newcastle held Manchester City to a draw at St James' Park last weekend, a positive result given the absences of key players like Alexander Isak.
Eddie Howe's side will be the favourites for this one and should come out on top against a struggling Everton defence.

Everton vs Newcastle Bet Builder Tips
Our bet builder tips for Everton vs Newcastle features Newcastle to win, Anthony Gordon over 1.5 Shots on Target, Harvey Barne to Score and Dwight McNeil Over 0.5 Shots on Target.
At the time of publishing it is a best price of 35/1 with bet365 and can be found as short as 11/1 elsewhere.
Everton have struggled defensively, winning just one of their last six Premier League games and failing to keep a clean sheet in five. With Jarrad Branthwaite potentially sidelined, they could be even more vulnerable. Despite a 2-1 win over Crystal Palace, Everton were largely outplayed.
In contrast, Newcastle have earned 11 points from six games, including a 1-1 draw against Manchester City.
Anthony Gordon, filling in for Alexander Isak, scored against City and will face the Premier League's second-worst defense this week. He's well placed to get over 1.5 shots on target playing up top against this weak defence.
Harvey Barnes has been highly effective, scoring three goals in six appearances. He’s taken 13 shots in his last four games and should be a key goal scoring outlet in Isak's absence.
For Everton, Dwight McNeil has been their top threat with three goals this season and is likely to hit the target again, having registered shots on target in each of his last four games.
