Aston Villa vs Newcastle LIVE SCORE: Villans hope to distance themselves further from Spurs in huge Toon clash – latest

ASTON VILLA host Newcastle in what promises to be a momentous midweek Premier League match.

The Toon are lacking consistency in the league but they’ll be itching to build on their recent 2-0 FA Cup win away at Fulham.

While Unai Emery‘s men had to settle for a replay with Chelsea, however, three points would see them go six points clear of 5th place Tottenham.
