David Moyes' team will travel to St James' Park on 2 November to face the Magpies in the Premier League.
The Toffees are coming off a 3-1 win over the Tyneside club in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup.
Moyes may make multiple changes against Newcastle, with Branthwaite among them.
Jake O'Brien has started the last two games for the Blues but could be replaced by the England international.
However, the Scottish manager may not want to make too many changes after finding a winning formula at Hill Dickinson Stadium.
Will Jack Grealish return to Everton starting lineup vs Newcastle United?
Jack Grealish missed the 3-1 win over Newcastle after being left out of the squad due to disciplinary reasons.
The Manchester City loanee's unauthorised absence from training forced Moyes' hand at Hill Dickinson Stadium.
Tyrique George started on the left-wing in the Carabao Cup, but failed to make much of an impact before being replaced by Charly Alcaraz in the 76th minute.
The Scottish manager may feel Grealish has served his punishment and bring him into the team in place of the former Chelsea youngster.
What about Ainsley Maitland-Niles at St James' Park?
Ainsley Maitland-Niles' prospects have diminished in recent weeks after some poor defensive displays.
Merlin Rohl has been the chosen right-back in the last two games and Moyes could continue to rely on him.
As for the central defence, James Tarkowski could return to partner Branthwaite.
Speaking after the 0-0 draw against Tottenham Hotspur in September, the 63-year-old head coach said, "Branthwaite was excellent."
The 24-year-old Englishman has been pivotal to Moyes' plans this season and has been sidelined for the required period after his concussion.
Everton potential lineup vs Newcastle: Pickford; Rohl, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Hackney, Garner; Dibling, Dewsbury-Hall, Grealish; Barry.
