Newcastle United welcome Steven Gerrard’s Aston Villa to the North East on Sunday afternoon as part of the weekend’s Premier League TV schedule.

Newcastle picked up a massive result in midweek as they beat fellow strugglers Everton 3-1 at St James’ Park to move out of the bottom three.

The Magpies look to be building some momentum on the back of seven points from their last three Premier League games and a busy January window.

Villa may have just about caught their breath after a frenzied six-goal thriller against Leeds United on Wednesday.

The points were shared but Phillipe Coutinho’s genius was clear to see against the Whites, with the Brazilian scoring once and adding two assists, and he’ll be hoping to put on another show on Tyneside.

Our prediction: Newcastle v Aston Villa

There’s plenty to be excited about ahead of Villa’s visit to the North East on Sunday, not least the inspired form of Coutinho and Allan Saint-Maximin in midweek.

Eddie Howe will need more results and performances like Tuesday if he is to keep Newcastle up this season.

A strong start will likely be key in what looks set to be a tight encounter at St James’ Park.

Our prediction: Newcastle 1-2 Aston Villa (10/1 at bet365)
