Our Prediction<\/th>\nOdds & Bookmaker<\/th>\nConfidence<\/th>\nWhy We’re Backing It<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
Newcastle to Win<\/strong><\/td>\n10\/11 @ BetMGM<\/a>
(52.4%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nNewcastle United are unbeaten in their last eight home Premier League matches (W6 D2) and have started 2026 with consecutive victories at St James\u2019 Park, beating Crystal Palace and Leeds. Villa, on the other hand, have failed to score in their last two. Emery’s men faced a tough Europa League trip to Turkey on Thursday and will have had significantly less time to prepare. Newcastle are unbeaten in their last 17 home league games against Aston Villa (W11 D6), winning the last four by an aggregate score of 13-1.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Joelinton Over 0.5 Shots on Target<\/strong><\/td>\n9\/5 @ BetMGM<\/a>
(35.7%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nWe fancy the hosts to rack up the shots on Sunday, with Villa sitting back and soaking up the pressure. Joelinton catches the eye in the shots on target market. The Brazilian has recorded at least one shot on target in four of his last five league games, with totals of 2,1,0,2,1. At the Dolly Parton price of 9\/5 he looks a shade too big in the market to clear the 0.5 line here. <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
