Newcastle vs Aston Villa Prediction (17.10.2026)

Newcastle suffered an unexpectedly heavy loss of 1:4 away to the newcomer Coventry in the last round. They will hope to respond with a home victory, as happened recently when they lost 1:4 away to Leeds but then won 2:1 at home against Hull City. Over 2.5 goals and goals in both nets were present in five of Newcastle's six matches in the Premier League. The same was true for their last ten home games in the league.

Aston Villa did not start the season well, but just like last year, they are beginning to pick up speed. This week they crushed Fenerbahce at home with 6:0. In the Premier League, they only have one win from the first six rounds, which came in their last visit with a 3:2 victory over Tottenham. Villa is also on a streak of seven consecutive matches with over 2.5 goals in all competitions, six of which had goals in both nets.

Newcastle has been wavering since the start of the season. Aston Villa seems to be finding their rhythm. I think the guests can avoid defeat here. We also see that goals in the matches of both teams are generally present, so both teams to score is also part of my expectations for the match.
