Newcastle United returned to winning ways in the Premier League on Monday with a commanding 3-0 victory over Everton at St James' Park. The home side controlled the match from start to finish and gave their supporters a comfortable evening in the Monday night fixture.

A dominant home performance

The statistics told the story of Newcastle's superiority. The hosts enjoyed 69 per cent of possession and outshot Everton by 12 efforts to seven, with nine of those attempts on target compared with just one for the visitors. Everton rarely threatened, and Newcastle's control of the tempo meant the result was seldom in doubt once the home side had established their advantage.

Context after a mixed run

The win arrived at an important moment for Newcastle, who had experienced a mixed sequence of results in recent weeks. The victory also provided a measure of response to their recent cup meeting with Everton, after the Merseyside club had won the previous encounter between the sides. On this occasion, home advantage and a sharper all-round display proved decisive.

Everton struggle without Grealish

Everton were without Jack Grealish, who was suspended by the club after missing a training session, and they struggled to create chances in his absence. Newcastle, despite their own injury concerns, looked the more organised and confident side throughout. The three-goal margin reflected the gap between the teams on the night and left Everton with plenty to reflect on before their next fixture.
