The Aston Villa vs Newcastle live stream, featuring two teams that have been going in opposite directions since they met on the opening weekend of the Premier League season, can be viewed live from anywhere with a VPN

When Aston Villa traveled to St James' Park in the first match week of the Premier League 23/24 season, they had a tough time Newcastle tore Villa apart with an impressive 5-1 win But since that one-sided match in August, Aston Villa has managed to overturn the established order of the EPL Villa is now in fourth place with an eye on Champions League qualification Conversely, Newcastle is the league's most out-of-form team, having lost six of their last seven games, and their injury list only growing by the week

On paper, it looks almost certain that Aston Villa will be able to avenge their disastrous opening day defeat An added reassurance is that they have a good home record against Newcastle The last time Newcastle left Villa Park with three points was back in September 2013 The last two months have not been easy for Newcastle, and the Toon Army may have to endure another uncomfortable 90 minutes in this midweek match

Here's the lineup:

Aston Villa: Martinez, Cash, Consa, Lenglet, Moreno, McGinn, Luiz, Kamara, Thielemans, Diaby, Watkins

Newcastle Dubravka, Trippier, Schar, Botman, Byrne, Miley, Guimaraes, S Longstaff, Murphy, Isaac, Gordon

However, Aston Villa have been off the pace in recent weeks, winning just one of their last four games Perhaps Newcastle could pull off an upset that proves they are still a dangerous team that deserves a serious fight The Aston Villa vs Newcastle game should be on the live stream
