Newcastle United had failed to win any of their previous nine away league games At a glance Malick Thiaw heads Newcastle in front from Lewis Miley's corner after just 55 seconds Miley doubles Newcastle's lead after error from Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford Nick Woltemade adds third before half-time with cool lobbed finish Thiaw scores another header in second half before Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall nets delightful consolation for Everton PLAYER RATINGS Newcastle United head coach Eddie Howe enjoyed a 48th birthday to remember as his side ended their long wait for an away win in style against Everton. The travel-sick visitors had failed to win on the road in the Premier League since April. But aggressive Newcastle started as they meant to go on at the Hill Dickinson Stadium by scoring the quickest goal of the season so far in the top flight. Defender Malick Thiaw jumped ahead of Michael Keane to power a header past Jordan Pickford and net his first goal for the club from Lewis Miley's in-swinging corner. Though Everton rallied, initially, after going behind after just 55 seconds, the hosts only had themselves to blame for Newcastle's second goal. Not only did Everton defenders fail to clear their lines following some pinball inside the box, Pickford failed to keep out Miley's effort despite it being hit straight at him. David Moyes, unlike a beaming Howe, looked understandably furious on the touchline, but the Everton manager's evening got even worse before half-time when Nick Woltemade added a third. Tino Livramento clipped the ball down the line and Anthony Elanga hooked it across to the unmarked German, who nonchalantly lobbed Pickford from inside the area to score his seventh goal of the season. Newcastle grabbed a fourth before the hour mark when Lewis Hall's teasing cross was headed in by Thiaw at the back post. There was still time for Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall to pull one back for Everton after the midfielder brilliantly controlled James Tarkowski's ball over the line before slotting past goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale. But it was always going to be a mere consolation as Newcastle leapfrogged Everton in the table and moved up to 11th place. Have your say on Everton’s performance What did you make of Newcastle’s display? This video can not be played First away win is a big step forward for Newcastle form - Howe This felt like a huge win for Newcastle - in so many ways. Howe had grown tired of talking about his side's issues away from home but, finally - following a 236-day wait - they delivered on the road in the Premier League. The Newcastle head coach rang the changes following the midweek defeat in Marseille - and those calls certainly paid off. Ramsdale, Miley and Elanga were among those handed rare starts while regulars like Joelinton, Hall and Woltemade also came back in. Ramsdale may have conceded late on, but the goalkeeper was assured on his first league start in place of the injured Nick Pope and calm in possession. Miley set up his side's opener before making it 2-0 as he became the second-youngest Newcastle player ever to score and assist in a Premier League game. And the rapid Elanga looked more like himself following a challenging start since his £55m move from Nottingham Forest. Yet it was a change of mentality as much as personnel. As Everton started to probe, after going behind so early on, Newcastle protected Ramsdale, with Dan Burn and Hall both making crucial blocks inside the box and even forward Woltemade getting back to cut out a cross from Jack Grealish. Though Pickford ended up giving Newcastle a huge helping hand, crucially, Newcastle managed to double their advantage, which they failed to do when ahead on their travels against Marseille, Brentford and West Ham in recent weeks. They did not look back from there as Everton crumbled. No wonder the away end repeatedly sang about how they did not want to go home as the game drew to a close. This victory had been a long time coming. This video can not be played Newcastle are probably the most physical team in the league - Moyes Ten-man Everton showed plenty of fight to win at Old Trafford on Monday. Perhaps a little too much after midfielder Idrissa Gueye was sent off for slapping team-mate Michael Keane. But Everton never truly recovered from going behind so early on in this game. Just when Everton appeared to rally, and started to dominate possession and force Newcastle back, the hosts gift-wrapped a second even before Pickford's error after both Michael Keane and Tim Iroegbunam failed to clear. Elanga then went on to shake off Iroegbunam far too easily in the build-up to Woltemade's third. It was rather telling that Moyes hauled off Iroegbunam at half-time but, in truth, he could have substituted a host of his under-performing players. But this was a rare off day at the Hill Dickinson. Everton have enjoyed life at their sparkling new home since leaving Goodison Park, losing just two games. But when Moyes' side have lost, they have ended up well-beaten - as was also the case in their only other defeat at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, a 3-0 reverse against Tottenham Hotspur last month. Everton bounced back from that defeat by picking up seven points from their next three games. They have to ensure they do so again. Everton travel to Bournemouth on Tuesday, 2 December (19: 30 GMT) before hosting Nottingham Forest at the Hill Dickinson Stadium on Saturday, 6 December (15: 00 GMT). Newcastle welcome Tottenham Hotspur to St James' Park on Tuesday, 2 December (20: 15 GMT) before another home game against Burnley on Saturday, 6 December (15: 00 GMT).

Newcastle are winless in their last four Premier League games against Everton (D2 L2), having won five of their previous six against the Toffees (L1). This is the first time Everton are facing Newcastle in the Premier League while above them in the table since a 3-1 away loss in February 2022 (Everton 16th, Newcastle 19th). Indeed, the Toffees are winless in their last six against the Magpies when above them (D2 L4). Everton have won 2-0 against Fulham and 1-0 at Manchester United in their last two Premier League games – they’ve not won three in a row with a clean sheet each time since April 2024. Having beaten Man City last time out, Newcastle are looking for consecutive Premier League victories for the first time since a run of five in March/April last season. However, away from home the Magpies are winless in nine Premier League games (D4 L5), last having a longer run between December 2015 and August 2017 (12). Newcastle have lost their last three Premier League away games, opening the scoring in both of the last two. Only three teams have lost 3+ consecutive away games despite opening the scoring in the competition – Middlesbrough (September 2008), Leicester (October 2022) and Brentford (November 2024). Only Arsenal and Crystal Palace (3 each) have conceded fewer first half goals than Newcastle (4) in the Premier League this season, with the Magpies the only side yet to concede in the opening 30 minutes of games. Against no side does Everton’s Jack Grealish have more Premier League assists than he has against Newcastle (4). Grealish also has the joint-most assists of any player in the Premier League this season (4), though all four came in his first three appearances in August. After a run of 16 games without a goal, Harvey Barnes has now scored three times in his last two, netting both in Newcastle’s 2-1 win over Manchester City last time out. Everton’s Jack Grealish (36) and Newcastle’s Bruno Guimarães (27) have won more fouls than any other players in the Premier League this season. Meanwhile, Newcastle’s Dan Burn has conceded more fouls than any other defender (23). Substitution, Everton. Charly Alcaraz replaces Tim Iroegbunam. Second Half begins Everton 0, Newcastle United 3.
