Paul Merson releases Everton vs Newcastle prediction and assesses both teams

According to Paul Merson, the former footballer and Sky Sports pundit, he is predicting a 2-1 victory for Newcastle United in their upcoming match against Everton at Goodison Park. Merson commends Newcastle for their exceptional performance throughout the season, describing them as “absolutely phenomenal.” He expresses high regard for manager Eddie Howe and acknowledges the team’s improvement under his leadership.

Merson anticipates that Anthony Gordon, a former Everton player now with Newcastle, might face some criticism from the Goodison Park crowd. Despite acknowledging Everton’s potential danger, especially at home, Merson believes it would be surprising if they were to face relegation, considering their ability to produce unpredictable results.

While recognizing Everton’s capability to create problems for Newcastle, Merson remains unsure if the Magpies can maintain their excellent performances week after week, especially considering the injuries in their squad. Nonetheless, he still expects Newcastle to secure a victory in the match against Everton.
