"Aston Villa are likely to line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation against Newcastle United. Emiliano Martinez will be in goal for the Villans. Matty Cash, Ezri Konsa, Tyrone Mings and Lucas Digne will be the two defenders. Amadou Onana and Douglas Luiz will be the two holding midfielders. Jadon Sancho, Morgan Rogers and Emiliano Buendia will be deployed in attacking midfield. Ollie Watkins will lead the line for Villa."
"Newcastle United are one of the biggest clubs in the Premier League and are hugely ambitious as well. The Magpies finished in the top five of the Premier League table last season and also won the Carabao Cup. Eddie Howe's side, though, are not having a great time. Newcastle are as low as 12th in the Premier League table at the moment with 33 points from 25 matches, as many as 11 points behind fourth-placed Manchester United."
