Villa Last Beat Newcastle Away in 2005
You must trawl back to 2005 to find the last time Aston Villa travelled to St James’ Park and left with all three points.
That victory came in an incredible game that ended 0-3 to Villa and saw THREE (yes, 3) Newcastle players sent off.
Two of those Toon players to get an early bath were Lee Bowyer and Kieron Dyer, who famously had a brawl with each other on the pitch (watch below).
They got their marching orders in the 82nd minute – 9 minutes after their teammate Steven Taylor also got sent off.
More recently, this repeat fixture last season ended Newcastle 4-0 Aston Villa and the campaign before it finished 1-0 to the Magpies – therefore, Villa haven’t scored at St James’ since 2021.

87% Of The Last 15 Meetings Went Under 2.5 Goals
Recent Newcastle vs Aston Villa head-to-head stats also tell us we could be in for a low-scoring encounter.

The only thing to point out though is both these 3+ goal games came last season in a 4-0 win for Newcastle and a 3-0 home win for Villa.

The Draw Has Been A Good Option In Recent Clashes

If you want better odds, then maybe siding with a 1-1 correct score is the way to go as this score has popped up 4 times in the last 12 (33%).
Newcastle’s Callum Wilson Scored a Brace In This Fixture Last Season

You can back Callum Wilson to score anytime @ 23/20 with BetUK to get the first goal @ 29/10 or @ 5/1 to get 2+ goals again.
