Everton have been one of the form teams in the country so far, winning all six of their matches in all competitions and making it three from three last weekend, in which Dominic Calvert-Lewin continued his goalscoring run before netting a hat-trick in the midweek Carabao Cup victory over West Ham.
Ancelotti does have a number of injury concerns on his hands though, including summer signing Allan, and Brighton will fancy their chances of an upset after resting the bulk of their squad during the week. Follow the live updates below.
Callum Wilson strikes twice to condemn Burnley to another defeat
Newcastle 3-1 Burnley: Wilson's fourth goal this season wrapped up the points as Newcastle moved up to sixth in the table
Burnley have begun a league campaign with three straight defeats for the first time since 2003-04 in the second tier, while the last time they did so in the top-flight was in 1927-28.
90+4 mins: Full time. Newcastle have been decent tonight. Not quite the expansion, flowing team the fans want but they’ve shown enough promise going forward to handle the teams around them in the league. Allan Saint-Maximin was exceptional, Callum Wilson continues to impress and most importantly they got the three points.
Burnley are all over the place. Problems at the back, a loack of creativity up top, the midfield isn’t commanding enough. Sean Dyche won’t be too impressed with that performance. The visitors had a good 15-20 mins at the start of the second half but quickly fell apart.
88 mins: Bardsley tries to pick out Wood in the box, Darlow comes out to claim the ball, he fumbles it but manages to drop on top of the loose ball without too much trouble.
84 mins: Newcastle are currently going up to sixth in the table with Burnley down at the bottom alongside Fulham and Sheffield United yet to earn a point.
80 mins: Manquillo is fouled by Brownhill over on the right wing for Newcastle. Burnley have thrown themselves into their tackles all night. It hasn’t worked.
Newcastle 3 - 1 Burnley - Wilson
77 mins: GOAL! Callum Wilson dinks the penalty straight down the middle, he’s got four goals in four games for Newcastle. What a signing he’s turning out to be.
