Two teams wanting a spot in the Champions League for next season clash at Villa Park as Aston Villa welcomes Newcastle United and we’re here to look at all the trends, football predictions, analysis and mathematics for this game.
Aston Villa are currently sitting fourth in the Premier League in what is an exceptionally tight top four.
The club are level on points with both Manchester City in second and Arsenal in third, meaning only goals difference keeps the three apart from one another.
Villa currently have 27 goals conceded in the league, which also means only those above them in the top three have let in fewer, while only Tottenham Hotspur, City and Liverpool have scored more than the Villains.
Better yet, Villa are already eight clear of the sixth-placed West Ham United, so another spot in Europe and potentially even the Champions League is well on the cards.
On the other hand, Villa have drawn their past two games 0-0, as they went to Goodison Park to meet with Everton in the Premier League before earning a replay in the FA Cup after registering the same results away to Chelsea.
The last win for Unai Emery's excellent side was in a 3-2 win over Burnley, as Douglas Luiz stole the headlines with a penalty in the 89th minute of the game.

Leon Bailey and Moussa Diaby also got more goals that day. In terms of mathematics and trends, Bailey now has six league goals and five assists, while Diaby has four goals and four assists. Ollie Watkins remains Villa’s main man with a record of nine Premier League goals and eight assists in 21 games.
Stunningly, despite the downfall of Newcastle over the past few months that sees them in ninth, they did smash Villa 5-1 on the opening day. Alexander Isak bagged himself a brace, as Sandro Tonali and Harvey Barnes grabbed debut goals alongside a finish from Callum Wilson.
Things have changed drastically for the Magpies, as they lost to City at home last time out and have also suffered defeats to Luton Town, Nottingham Forest and Liverpool in the past five weeks to put them on a four-game losing run in the league.
Forebet predicts a win for Villa and over 2.5 goals.
