The full picture

Chris Sutton is predicting Everton will beat Newcastle 2-1 at St James' Park, citing Newcastle's open approach as a factor that will give Everton chances. Sutton made this prediction following Newcastle's 3-1 Carabao Cup exit to Everton on Thursday. He has a history of making incorrect predictions for Newcastle this season. Sutton's prediction is based on his analysis of both teams' styles.

Sutton believes Everton will capitalize on Newcastle's open style, which he thinks will leave them vulnerable to counter-attacks. He notes that Everton carried more of a threat than expected in their previous match against Arsenal. Sutton's confidence in his prediction stems from his understanding of both teams' approaches to the game.

Sutton's predictive record for Newcastle is not strong, having correctly predicted only one result out of eight league predictions this season. His last prediction, a 2-2 draw at Crystal Palace, was incorrect as Newcastle won 2-0. Sutton's scoring system awards points for correct results, with exact scores earning more points.

Source context

Chris Sutton is backing Everton to beat Newcastle 2-1 at St James' Park on Monday night, warning that our open approach will give David Moyes's side chances to take all three points. The BBC pundit is predicting another defeat against the Toffees after our 3-1 Carabao Cup exit on Thursday. His own record remains fairly miserable, though, with just one correct Newcastle result from eight league predictions this season. "Everton's age-old problem is how Thierno Barry is going to perform because they rely so heavily on how well he is playing up front. "To be fair to David Moyes's side, they carried more of a threat than I expected in their defeat by Arsenal and I can see them getting chances here, because Newcastle are so open.
