Match preview

Our model makes Newcastle slight favourites, giving them a 51% chance of winning against 23% for the draw.

Our fair price for "Home win" is 1.98 — the pick only has value at a bookmaker price above that.

We expect 3.1 goals in total (1.84 for Newcastle, 1.28 for Aston Villa), which points to Over 2.5 as a secondary angle.

Newcastle sit 13th on 11 points; Aston Villa are 10th on 12.

Check team news before kick-off — a late change to either line-up moves the numbers.
