Newcastle have defied expectation all season and a finale in keeping with their outstanding campaign could yet deliver Champions League qualification. Alan Pardew's team must beat Everton, who have lost at home only twice in 2012, and hope Arsenal or Tottenham slip up, to finish in the top four. Third is also achievable should north London falter spectacularly. Everton have only a parochial battle with Liverpool to play for but are unbeaten in eight games and will want to show David Moyes there is hope as he prepares to consider his future this summer.
