The Toffees face the Magpies once again on 2 November after beating them 3-1 in the Carabao Cup just a few days ago.
Matthias Jaissle is under pressure at the Tyneside club after winning just three of the first eight Premier League games.
David Moyes has a chance to secure three straight victories at St James' Park for the first time in Everton's history.
In May 2025 and February 2026, the Blues beat the Magpies 1-0 and 3-2 respectively on Tyneside.
The Merseyside outfit beat Jaissle's team in the Carabao Cup and confidence will surely be high among the squad in L3.
Who is favourite to win in Newcastle United vs Everton?
Hayden Hackney stood out against Newcastle at Hill Dickinson Stadium in the 3-1 win.
It will be interesting to see whether Moyes sticks with the same starting lineup he found success with in the cup competition.
Despite beating the Magpies in the previous fixture, Opta's supercomputer has backed Jaissle's team to be the favourites at St James' Park.
Newcastle have been given a 45.9 per cent chance of winning at home on Monday.
The possibility of the visitors taking all three points is at 27.4 per cent, while a draw accounted for the remaining 26.7 per cent.
Jack Grealish latest ahead of trip to St James' Park
Jack Grealish was excluded from the Everton squad for the Carabao Cup clash against Newcastle after an unauthorised absence from training.
Since then, the England international has held talks with the hierarchy at Hill Dickinson Stadium, the details of which aren't known.
The 31-year-old hasn't scored or assisted yet for the Toffees this season, but his impact on the pitch is evident whenever he plays.
It would make sense for the Blues to bring the winger back into the fold after being excluded from the squad for a game.
Whether the Merseysiders believe Grealish has to serve more time on the sidelines before regaining their trust remains to be seen.
In the coming hours, the Englishman's situation in L3 will become much clearer.
