Aston Villa and Newcastle will clash in a pivotal Premier League showdown that could define who secures a coveted Champions League spot next season.
Indeed, Aston Villa arrive with renewed purpose after their narrow Champions League exit. However, they bowed out of the UCL with a 5-4 aggregate loss to PSG despite a 3-2 second-leg victory.
Meanwhile, only one point separates Villa in seventh from the projected fifth-place finish, so the stakes could not be higher.
Furthermore, they have lost five of their last six meetings with Newcastle and managed only one win in that period.
Despite that record, Villa have enjoyed tremendous form under Unai Emery, winning nine of their last ten matches. Moreover, they remain unbeaten in their last fifteen home fixtures, although only two of those games delivered a clean sheet.
Meanwhile, Newcastle secured a season‑best 5-0 victory over Crystal Palace, extending their lead to five points above sixth place.
However, defeat at Villa Park would slice their cushion, as they have lost four of their last five trips there.
They enter this game on a five‑match winning streak under Jason Tindall, despite Eddie Howe’s absence from the touchline.
Players to watch: Youri Tielemans has scored three Premier League goals against Newcastle, marking a joint‑career high. Furthermore, he struck in the midweek tie with PSG, making twelve of his last thirteen club goals arrive before half‑time.
Meanwhile, Jacob Murphy has contributed to thirteen goals in seventeen away games, scoring four and assisting nine. Interestingly, Aston Villa have scored at least twice in eight of their last nine home games.
