Newcastle United attacker Allan Saint-Maximin is the biggest threat to Everton.

PRT: Which Newcastle player should Everton be most cautious about and why?

"Carson: While Wilson is the danger man up top, this has to be Allan Saint-Maximin. One of the most explosive dribblers in the Premier League, he can change the match in the blink of an eye. The French winger has a new contract under his belt and is getting back to full fitness after an ankle injury earlier this season. There will be a few moments at the very least that you say “wow” when he’s on the ball and Newcastle will need him to add some steak to his sizzle this week."

PRT: What are your score predictions?

"Carson: I’ll say 2-1 or 2-0 Everton. I think this will be a typical Steve Bruce match for Newcastle. Sit deep, allow Everton to dominate the ball, and defend like their lives depended on it. It’s a dangerous strategy and one that rarely ends with a clean sheet. If Newcastle score, it will be a moment of brilliance from either Saint-Maximin or Wilson or both of them combining. Hopefully, this is the match that Bruce decides to let the guys play some football, but I wouldn’t hold my breath."
