Newcastle United faces Aston Villa this Sunday, looking to continue their strong home record against the Lions.
After a successful week in Europe, the Magpies shift their focus back to domestic competition. Manager Eddie Howe seeks a win to narrow the gap to the top four. Despite their recent home success, the team is worried about an injury to their captain. A win today would extend their unbeaten streak at home against Villa to 17 games.
