Everton Beat Newcastle to Set up League Cup Quarter-Final with Fleetwood

James Garner, Hayden Hackney and Thierno Barry scored as Everton reached the quarter-finals, while Newcastle missed their fifth straight last-eight berth.

  • On Thursday, October 29, 2026, Everton excluded winger Jack Grealish from their squad for the Carabao Cup tie against Newcastle United due to a "breach of club discipline."
  • The 31-year-old England international previously missed Saturday's 2-0 defeat to Arsenal through illness; reports indicate the disciplinary breach stems from an unauthorized training session absence.
  • Newcastle manager Matthias Jaissle has vowed to go "all in" for the clash at Hill Dickinson Stadium, targeting a fifth successive quarter-final appearance in the competition.
  • Manager David Moyes left Grealish out as punishment, naming two goalkeepers on the bench instead, while defender Jarrad Branthwaite remains sidelined due to concussion protocols.
  • The winner advances to face fourth-tier Fleetwood Town in the quarter-finals after the League Two side upset Premier League champions Arsenal earlier this week.
