Newcastle Vs Everton: Iwobi set for second EPL start
Super Eagles’ forward, Alex Iwobi is set for another English Premier League start when Everton travel to St James’ Park to take on Newcastle on Sunday.
A red card to Brazilian Richarlison in the Toffees’ 1-1 draw against Liverpool meant Iwobi was handed his first Premier League start of the campaign by manager Carlo Ancelotti in Everton’s 2-0 loss to Southampton last Sunday.
The Nigeria international could make another start on Sunday after the club manager confirmed that former Real Madrid star, James Rodrigues, would not be available for the trip to Newcastle.
“We have back Jonjoe Kenny and (Jarrad) Branthwaite. James will not be available, and we have (Seamus) Coleman out and Richarlison and Lucas Digne suspended,” Ancelotti said when asked for the latest team news.
“He (Rodriguez) has played all the games. He had a little problem, so he needs to rest for this game and he will be available for the next game.”
Against Southampton, Iwobi was replaced by Bernand at the beginning of the second half, but he now has another chance to impress the manager and the fans.
