Rebecca Lowe Everton should have been given the confidence boost the side needed last time out and should now be ready to pick up 3 points here. Goals had been hard to come by, but last week may have opened the door on that front. Defensively, Everton have failed to keep a clean sheet in all 5 of their competitive games so far this season.

Newcastle United will have been disappointed to lose at home to Blackpool last weekend, a side that should be down the bottom of the table come May and those 3 points lost could be crucial. They will want to pick themselves up here and in Andy Carroll have a real nuisance maker up front. The Magpies have a lot of pace in the wide areas which will create chances for them, although they do still look a little suspect at the back.

This could be an entertaining game this weekend. I favour the home side to come away with the 3 points but the price is just a little short for me to want to get involved, especially with their goal scoring problems before last Saturday. Goals seem to flow when the 2 teams meet and I feel that it will take at least 2 goals from 1 of the sides to get the 3 points.

Therefore I feel it may be a more favourable play in picking the over 2.5 goals option here.
