Aston Villa News and Form – Can Aston Villa earn important home victory?

Villa need to get their home form rolling again. They lost their last home fixture, but that was an excusable default against runaway league leaders Liverpool. That was part of a three match losing streak that the Villains currently find themselves on, however, one of those other losses in the sequence was against Manchester City. The home form of Villa this season reads W2 D2 L2.

Survival for newly promoted teams generally relies on their home form. The two victories at Villa Park that Dean Smith’s men have taken have been against teams who are down in the bottom half of the table with them. So that is a positive sign for the Villains going into this one. Villa have scored in each of their last three home games. But defensively they have been struggling with no clean sheet in seven, home and away combined.

The stats show that it is in the final fifteen minutes of matches when the Villains are most vulnerable. They have conceded 80% of league goals this season in the second half of games. 9 of their 16 goals conceded in the second half of games have been inside the final fifteen minutes. 75% of Aston Villa’s league games this season have ended over 2.5 goals and the Villains have shipped at least two goals in each of their last three fixtures.

Newcastle News and Form – Will the Magpies win at Villa Park?

The Magpies have put together some great league form to ease some relegation concerns. It has been back to back victories for Newcastle, those success coming against West Ham and Bournemouth. It is a three match undefeated streak of form that they are currently on. They have posted a positive W3 D1 L1 record in their last five league outings, the only reverse happening out at Chelsea.

The away record of Newcastle this season is W2 L4 so that is a big negative against them. However, they have been to Liverpool, Leicester and Chelsea, the current top three heading into the weekend. So that should be put into context. It has been an average of a goal per away game by Newcastle this season, with two-thirds of their games on the road going over 2.5 goals.

But while it has been a tally of six away goals by Newcastle this season, three of them happened in their last road game, a success at West Ham. The Magpies have scored only the one clean sheet on their travels this season. That victory in London against the Hammers, snapped a three match losing streak that Necatsle were on away from home in which they scored just one goal. Heading back into action there are only two teams who have scored fewer league goals than Newcastle this season.
