The Premier League, as a whole, had a mixed bag performance in the Champions League yetserday. Newcastle United and Manchester City lost while Chelsea looked very impressive in blasting Barcelona. Now Newcastle travels to Everton, to take on a side that is both above them in the table, and enters this match with the advantage of added rest. That’s because the Toffees aren’t in UEFA competition this season. In other words, it is easy to understand why Everton might be the favorite in this one.
