Follow all the action from St. James' Park

Follow live coverage as Newcastle United face Everton today in the Premier League. Another top-flight season will be covered in full right here with The Independent, as reigning champions Manchester City look to make it an unprecedented five titles in a row come the end of 2024/25.
The likes of Arsenal and Liverpool will be chasing Pep Guardiola's side, but just as fascinating will be the race for Champions League places, with more teams than ever before having designs on top-four finishes. Chelsea remain big-spending, Manchester United's latest rebuild continues and both Tottenham and Newcastle will expect improvements this year - yet it was Aston Villa who snared fourth last term.
Meanwhile, it's Southampton, Leicester City and Ipswich Town who made it back to the elite after promotion last year and each will have hope they can make it more than a one-year stay. Follow the latest live action from the Premier League below:

On another look, that penalty claim saw Schar flick the ball onto Livramento's arm. That's the dealbreaker, as it would've been a harsh decision to give. He knew nothing about it.

Ndiaye somehow beats four Newcastle players as he is forced backwards and then loops back on himself over halfway to spark a move down the right. Harrison is found and crosses powerfully. It looks to hit the arm of Livramento and the visitors want a penalty! The VAR has had a look, but the arm is deemed to be in a natural position.

Newcastle need to rise to the mounting pressure in the second half and regain focus on their goal of European qualification. A reminder, while the home fans are looking at other scores, the hosts can seal their Champions League spot with a win. With this, they'll need to test Pickford further and work above their xG of 0.68. They must also be wary of the travelling Toffees, who have looked sharp in places to register a 0.24 xG.

A frustrating first half comes to a close at St. James' Park, as Newcastle and Everton remain locked together at 0-0. The hosts are yet to click into gear against their stubborn opponents, yet have offered the clearest cut chances. Early pressure threatened to bear fruit as Livramento crossed for Barnes in the 27th minute. However, the midfielder's touch was poor and into the arms of a grateful Pickford. Four minutes later, the former Sunderland man continued a pantomime villain role, adding some fine saves to his collection of boos and jeers after his former side just sealed promotion to the first tier. First, the keeper parried away a Tonali long-range strike from the bottom-right corner, before getting back up to deny Isak. Five minutes later, the Toffees' keeper was alive to tip over from Botman's header. In the following melee, the keeper then did brilliantly to prod another Botman effort round the base of the right post with a stretched left leg. While the visiting stopper was most active, Newcastle were reminded of Everton's offensive threat just before the break. Mykolenko crossed from the left and found Alcaraz. He headed on target, forcing Pope into a fine fingertip save.
