Luke Garbutt hoping to keep hold of Everton starting spot

Everton fullback Luke Garbutt hopes his run of games continues against Newcastle United.

The left-back has deputised ably for Leighton Baines who faces a late fitness test on the groin injury that has kept him out of the Blues' last four games.

Garbutt told evertontv: "I think my form has been good. I've performed at the level needed and hopefully I can kick on now and get a few more games under my belt.

"Playing out there is a dream come true so I've just got to keep going really.

"The link-up play with Naisy and Rom was good [against Dynamo Kyiv] and we've got to take that into Sunday's game now.

"We've got to be on the front foot from the off and hopefully get a positive result."
