EVERTON vs NEWCASTLE (EPL)

2 clubs in crisis. 1 has been uncharacteristically leaky at the back, the other has lost 5 games in a row and lost the faith of their fans. Who to back then? I'm going with Newcastle, as they have to stop their horrible run, and I'd expect the new-manager-syndrome to kick in. Owen has been able to score even with his team lacking confidence and shape, so I think he'll step up during this match when the new-manager-syndrome kicks in. Everton have had trouble scoring - 1 goal in 3 games tells you that much - and are a side without confidence and most importantly, Tim Cahill. I don't think that Newcastle will lose this one.

Roland's prediction: $5 on Newcastle +0.5/1 @ 1.880 = $9.40
