Newcastle United vs Everton Prediction and Tips: Corners

Corners for and against, home and away

Newcastle host Everton on modest home form, but it's Everton's corner count on the road that stands out here. In their last four Premier League away games — at Bournemouth, Tottenham, Hull and Arsenal — Everton won 3, 6, 6 and 7 corners, an average of 5.5 per game, despite picking up only one win in that run.

That fits the usual corners pattern: a side that struggles to create clear chances away from home but still has to attack to get back into games tends to pick up corners from blocked crosses and deflected efforts rather than clean shots. Newcastle at home have won 4, 4, 4 and 2 corners in their last four Premier League home games (3.5 per game) — not a side that shuts the game down and starves the opposition of width.

Everton's starting wide players for this one have not been confirmed, and the sample here is only four games each, so this is a cut-stake pick on the raw numbers rather than a full-confidence one.

At 2.08, Everton over 4.5 corners is the tip. 0.5 units.

Team news

No confirmed line-up or wide-player news checked this far from kick-off; this is priced on the raw corner numbers only, which is why the stake is cut.

Verdict

At 2.08, over 4.5 corners needs a 48.1% chance. Everton have gone over that line in 3 of their last 4 away games, and Newcastle's home matches have not been short of corners either.
