EDDIE HOWE has made four changes to his Newcastle United side for this evening's Premier League home game with Everton - with starts for Lewis Hall and Elliot Anderson.

Emil Krafth and Harvey Barnes also coming into the Magpies' starting line-up as Howe wrestles with the ongoing injury crisis that has ruled out Jamaal Lascelles, Tino Livramento and Miguel Almiron after the trio all sustained injuries in Saturday's win over West Ham.

Krafth will start at right-back with Kieran Trippier still unavailable, with Hall getting only his second league start for the Magpies on the left of the back four. Dan Burn moves infield to partner Fabian Schar at the heart of the back four, as he did for most of Saturday's game after Lascelles was injured.

Anderson's impressive substitute appearance at the weekend has got him the nod as part of the midfield three, with Joe Willock dropping down to the bench.

Barnes, who scored two goals after coming off the bench at the weekend, starts on the left of Newcastle's attack, replacing the suspended Anthony Gordon.

Alexander Isak will play as the central striker after scoring two penalties against West Ham, with Jacob Murphy getting the nod in the other attacking role.
