Premiership:
Everton (h)
We return to Premiership action today with a non-televised 3pm kickoff against the Moyes boys, who advanced in the UEFA Cup thanks to a 3-2 away win against Ukrainian side FC Metalist Kharkiv on Thursday evening.
Depending on other results we could go back up to fifth with a victory, although a second successive defeat could see us tumble as low as 15th.
NUFC: to follow...Cacapa is set to return after a scan on his groin showed no damage. Emre, Enrique and Faye all completed 90 minutes for the reserves in midweek without incident.
Sam Allardyce finds himself with only one striker fully fit - Oba Martins. Michael Owen looks likely to make the bench after his return from surgery, Ameobi is missing with groin trouble and Viduka is also struggling.
All of that presumably means that Alan Smith may get to play up front with Martins
Babayaro, Barton, Carr, Duff and Ramage are all missing.
EFC: to follow...striker Andy Johnson is still less than 100% with a groin problem and didn't feature in the midweek UEFA Cup fixture.
Meanwhile midfield pair Tim Cahill and Thomas Gravesen remain sidelined due to injury.
It's not expected that the Toffees will wear their special new vivid pink shirts - originally produced in a batch of just 50 to promote breast cancer awareness, but now given the go-ahead by the FA to be sold in the new year.
Referee: Martin Atkinson - first Toon game of the season for the whistler who gave Didier Drogba his marching orders last weekend.
Likely line up:
Given
Beye Taylor Rozhenal Enrique
Milner Geremi Emre N'Zogbia
Martins Smith
Bench: Harper, Faye, Cacapa, Butt, Viduka/Owen
(Gonna have to ask for an Everton fan to give their likely line up and stats.)

Yakubu is a poor player compared to other Africans like Dulee Johnson he would score more than Martins as well because they have similar speed but Dulee is a finisher like Van basten
I hope that Newcastle win this match because I don't like the appearance of Andy Johnson and Lee Carsly or Everton
