Newcastle vs Aston Villa Prediction & Betting Tips – Premier League, 17 Oct 2026

Newcastle head into round 7 carrying six absentees, including Joelinton, Elanga and Ramsey, gutting their attacking options. Their last five results show two heavy defeats and a goal difference of minus four. Aston Villa arrive unbeaten in five, with four wins and 17 goals scored across all competitions. The visitors have scored in all five recent outings and conceded in four, pointing to an open game. In three head-to-head meetings Newcastle have won one, drawn one and lost one, with both sides level at three goals apiece. The model puts Newcastle's win probability at 59 percent, yet the market prices them at 2.20-2.25, which is tight given the injury list. Villa's Draw No Bet at 2.25 (bet365) offers better value: if Newcastle equalise late, you get your stake back; if Villa do what their form says, you collect at a fair price.
