Villa had been going along nicely in the Premier League, but three successive defeats have left them perched just above the relegation zone.

Who will win? RadioTimes.com says…

Villa performed admirably against Liverpool, but failed to trouble Wolves often enough during their pre-international break clash.

They desperately need to turn up in games against potential table rivals, a message Smith will surely relay to his team ahead of this one.

Newcastle are steadily grinding into gear, but desperately need their plucky frontline of Joelinton, Miguel Almiron and Allan Saint-Maximin to start providing a consistent flow of goals.
