Draw (5/2)
Research: Both sides enter this fixture in good form. Aston Villa are unbeaten in five at home, while Newcastle have taken 9 points from their last 12 away from home. The last five league matches between the two sides at Villa Park have seen three draws and one win apiece. Villa’s home record stands at 8W, 7D, and just 1L — with a 44% draw rate, the highest in the league at home. Newcastle are steady on the road, drawing three of their 16 away games and winning eight. These are two evenly matched teams, and a point apiece could suit both as they continue their European push.
Over 2.5 Goals (4/5)
Research: Villa’s games average 2.97 total goals per match, with 69% of their matches going over 2.5 goals. Newcastle are even more prolific: their games average 3.10 goals, with 65% finishing over 2.5.
Both clubs are packed with attacking quality — Villa have scored in 81% of their home games, while Newcastle have scored in 81% of away matches. With both sides having defensive lapses (Newcastle concede 1.29 goals per game, Villa 1.44), this fixture has all the hallmarks of another high-scoring thriller.
Alexander Isak to Score or Assist (11/10)
Research: Isak has been Newcastle’s standout performer this season, scoring 20 goals and providing 6 assists in 28 league appearances. On average, he’s involved in a goal every 95 minutes and has registered a goal contribution in 4 of his last 5 appearances.
With Aston Villa conceding in 81% of matches and vulnerable to through balls and set pieces — both areas Newcastle thrive in — Isak is well-positioned to either score or provide the final pass once again.
