Newcastle vs. Everton Prediction
The two teams were very busy in the January transfer window, but it looks like Everton looks better after the deadline day. They sacked Rafa Benitez after the club failed to progress under his management with Frank Lampard replacing the Spaniard after both Roberto Martinez and Wayne Rooney turned down the offer. Lampard takes over with Everton sitting 16th in the Premier League, five points above the relegation zone, and they face fellow strugglers Newcastle.
Manchester United midfielder Donnie van de Beek joined the Toffees on loan, with Everton committing to paying his wages for the remainder of the season, Dele Alli joined from Tottenham, Vitaliy Mykolenko from Dynamo Kyiv, Anwar El Ghazi from Aston Villa, and Nathan Patterson from Glasgow Rangers.
Frank Lampard beat Brentford 4-1 in the FA Cup on his debut, but the Toffees are winless in their last five EPL fixtures losing four in the process. It’s a new beginning for Everton who's determined to bounce back and win their first Premier League game since the 2-1 victory against Arsenal back in December.
On the other side, Newcastle spent over $90m in January with the club managed by Eddie Howe trying to avoid relegation as they are sitting 19th in the standings with just 15 points picked up in 21 games. They signed Burnley striker Chris Wood who scored just three goals in 17 appearances this term, Kieran Trippier from Atletico Madrid, 24-year-old midfielder Bruno Guimaraes from Lyon and Aston Villa’s defender Matt Targett. All five of Newcastle's January signings may end up featuring against Frank Lampard's side.
Unfortunately, their 29-year-old striker, Callum Wilson, who scored six goals this term, might be out until the final games of the season with a calf injury. Newcastle beat Everton 2-1 last time at this venue but have not won consecutive EPL games on home soil against the Toffees since 2004. On the other side, Everton are on their longest run of scoring against a Premier League opponent away from home and have scored in 10 consecutive matches at St. James' Park.
The hosts have won just once on home soil this term failing to contribute on the scoreboard more than once in nice consecutive domestic fixtures. As we said before Everton looks better but given the circumstances, it’s tough to call a winner. Instead, we’re going with over 2.5 goals in the match for our first pick of this parlay.

Tottenham vs. Southampton Prediction
Tottenham vs. Southampton Prediction
The hosts come into the game on the back of a 3-1 victory over Brighton in the fourth round of the FA Cup on Saturday with Harry Kane scoring a brace. Antonio Conte has signed Dejan Kulusevski and Rodrigo Bentancur from Juventus on Deadline Day after being beaten to the signing of Porto’s Luis Diaz by Liverpool.
They loaned out midfielders Tanguy Ndombele, Giovani Lo Celso and Dele Alli, and winger Bryan Gil. On the other side, Southampton’s transfer window saw just one new signing with six players leaving the Saints on loan. Unfortunately, Southampton will be without one of their most important players, Armando Broja, who suffered a knee injury.
Antonio Conte is unbeaten in six matches against Southampton as a manager, winning five in the process while the hosts have won three and drawn two of their last five mutual encounters against the Saints. Harry Kane has scored 11 goals in 13 Premier League fixtures against Southampton, and he’s priced at -110 with DraftKings to find the back of the net on Wednesday.
Son Heung-min and Cristian Romero both returned to the starting lineup for the FA Cup while Kulusevski and Bentancur both came off the bench for their Tottenham debuts against Brighton. Spurs scored at least twice in each of their last five home games, and we expect them to cover the spread against a depleted Southampton who allowed 24 goals in 11 games on the road. The hosts are sitting just two points behind the last UCL spot occupied by Man United, but they have two games in hand on the Red Devils.
