Everton Form and Team News
Everton go into this game in a rut. Moyes has watched his side lose 2-0 to both Chelsea and Arsenal in their last two league matches, and they failed to score in either game. Goals have been a problem all season, and a cup tie at home is a chance to rebuild some confidence in front of their own fans.
The injury list does not help. Jarrad Branthwaite is expected to miss out, while Jack Grealish is a doubt after missing the Arsenal defeat. Moyes could hand starts to experienced players such as Michael Keane and Ainsley Maitland-Niles, and Tyler Dibling is pushing for a recall after impressing in the previous round.

Newcastle Form and Team News
Newcastle under Jaissle have been up and down, but they ended a two-game losing run with a solid 2-0 win over Crystal Palace at the weekend. That clean sheet should give them confidence going into a tricky away tie on Merseyside.
Valentino Livramento and Ewen Jaouen are reported to be unavailable through injury. Jaissle is likely to make some changes with a busy schedule ahead, but Newcastle have enough depth to field a strong side.

Head-to-Head and Key Trends
- Everton have failed to score in each of their last two league matches.
- Newcastle kept a clean sheet in their most recent league game.
- This is the last fourth-round tie, played a day after the rest of the round.
- The winner travels to League Two side Fleetwood, who knocked out Arsenal on penalties.
Home advantage and a Thursday night crowd will give Everton some hope, but they need to rediscover their scoring touch quickly.
Everton vs Newcastle Prediction
This is a tough tie to call because both managers are likely to rotate. Still, the form guide points towards Newcastle. Everton’s attack has gone quiet, and without Branthwaite at the back they could struggle against a Newcastle side that has more attacking options.
We expect a cagey, low-scoring game. Everton will be well organised under Moyes and will make it difficult, but Newcastle look the more likely side to find a goal. If it stays level, penalties are a real possibility, so be careful with pure match-result bets.
Prediction: Everton 0-1 Newcastle.
