Match Information
Villa Park, Aston, England
English Premier League
Key Stat: Newcastle have scored just one goal in their last seven matches in all competitions.
Expert Verdict:
Newcastle’s dismal recent form showed no sign of stopping when they were comfortably beaten by Arsenal last time out. Steve Bruce is under serious pressure and Aston Villa can take full advantage as they bid to bounce back to winning ways.
Our prediction
Aston Villa
In just their second match back after their long, enforced break, Aston Villa will be looking to get back to winning ways when they host Newcastle United at Villa Park. Dean Smith’s side are looking for their first win since Boxing Day, and only their second victory at Villa Park since thrashing Liverpool 7-2 back in October. Newcastle’s poor form means the hosts are favourites, however, for a game which takes place on Saturday January 23 and gets underway at 20:00 local time.
