Newcastle United have a must-win encounter to end their Premier League campaign at home to Everton at St James’ Park on Sunday afternoon
Eddie Howe‘s men know they have to collect all three points in order to ensure Champions League qualification, otherwise they could be caught by two of the clubs below them, and here Sports Mole provides details of how to tune into Sunday’s fixture.
What time does Newcastle vs. Everton kick off?
As is customary on the final day of the Premier League season, all 10 matches will get underway at 4pm on Sunday.
The most recent meeting between these two sides on the final day also saw Newcastle in Champions League contention back in 2011-12, but they were beaten 3-1 at Goodison Park, and had to settle for the Europa League.
Where is Newcastle vs. Everton being played?
Newcastle’s Premier League finale will come on home soil at St James’ Park, as they seek to capitalise on good form in familiar surroundings in order to get over the line and finish in the top five.
The reverse fixture at Goodison Park took place in October, and ended goalless, as ex-Everton man Anthony Gordon was denied by boyhood Sunderland fan Jordan Pickford from the penalty spot.
How to watch Newcastle vs. Everton in the UK
TV channels
With all 10 matches taking place simultaneously on Sunday, Newcastle vs. Everton has not been one of the three matches selected for TV coverage this weekend.
Sky Sports will show Liverpool lift the title following their clash against Crystal Palace, as well as the showdown between Nottingham Forest and Chelsea, while TNT Sports are broadcasting Manchester United’s home match against Aston Villa.
Online streaming
Therefore, for viewers in the UK, following on local radio, BBC’s Final Score, or Sky Sports’s Soccer Saturday will have to make do for this encounter.
For overseas supporters, the game will be available on Bein Sports 5 for fans in the Arab world, NOW Premier League 3 in Hong Kong, Peacock in the US, SuperSport Action in South Africa, Optus Sport in Australia and Sky Sport in New Zealand.
Highlights
A three-minute snippet of the highlights of the action at St James’ Park will be available just after the final whistle on the Sky Sports Youtube channel and their website.
For the more traditional football fan, highlights will also be available on Match of the Day on BBC1 at 10:30pm later on Sunday night.
What is at stake for Newcastle and Everton on the final day?
Newcastle must win to ensure they confirm Champions League qualification next season, as five clubs can still finish in the three remaining places, and they are all separated by just three points, in what is set to be an exciting final day.
Everton are merely playing for pride with 13th place guaranteed in the Premier League, and after giving Goodison Park a worthy farewell last weekend, the players will be much more relaxed, after leaving the Grand Old Lady with a win against Southampton.
