Newcastle United look to end their four-match losing streak
Villa Park will play host to Tuesday’s Round 22 Premier League game between Aston Villa and Newcastle United. The home team are in fine form and also competing for the top four positions. Not many people expected them to perform like this but they have defeated some top teams this season and are on high confidence. They are the favourites to win this fixture. Villa are unbeaten in their home this season they will be ready to face the challenge of Newcastle.
The away team is suffering from an injury crisis as many players are out due to injury and the Magpies have experienced a huge fall from grace, losing six of their last seven Premier League fixtures, leaving themselves in 10th place, 14 points outside the top four. It will be very difficult for them to get a win in this fixture but this will be a mouthwatering clash for sure.

Players to Watch
Moussa Diaby (Aston Villa)
Moussa Diaby’s movement within the attacking third is a key component to both his game and Aston Villa’s attack. His ability to create and attack space with and without the ball makes it very difficult to be marked. It proves to be very effective at disrupting the opposition’s defence and creating space for his teammates.
Miguel Almiron (Newcastle United)
Almirón has consistently demonstrated his versatility within an attack. His ability to receive possession under pressure is a particular strength, he can quickly move possession between the lines after turning, before then playing penetrative passes to those further forward. The energy with which he presses is something really special.
