A massive battle at the bottom between two teams struggling for identity as well as survival takes place on Tuesday night, as Newcastle United host Everton.
The Magpies made five new additions during the January transfer window, with Bruno Guimaraes the biggest-name signing who they will hope can add enough quality in the middle of the park to make the difference against the drop.
Eddie Howe’s team remain in the bottom three, a point off safety with a game in hand on Norwich above them.
Everton are only four points above Newcastle themselves, 16th in the table and with Frank Lampard in charge here for the first time in the Premier League with his new team.
