The 2023/24 Premier League season is under way and you can follow every game and every goal right here with The Independent.

Everton host Newcastle United on Thursday evening with both clubs struggling against adversity right now: the Toffees due to a points deduction which leaves them in the relegation zone and the Magpies facing an injury crisis, with goalkeeper Nick Pope the latest long-term absentee.

Victory for the hosts tonight will see them move out of the bottom three, while Eddie Howe’s side will be looking to go back up to fifth if they manage a third straight league victory. They’ve only won once on the road this term though, while Sean Dyche’s men have also only won once at home.

Branthwaite and Pickford both appear to be struggling for Everton at the moment and there is a break in play as both players can receive some treatment. Branthwaite looks like he will be okay to continue, but Pickford is still down and in some discomfort.

Newcastle have had 63.6 per cent of the possession in the second half and have looked to test Pickford with five shots. However, the Magpies have only managed to hit the target once since the break, with the Everton goalkeeper saving with ease.

Young is down and looks in some discomfort after clashing with a Newcastle player. He's back on his feet now but appears to be limping. Dyche might be considering making a change with the 38-year-old struggling.
