At 4:15 a.m. Beijing time on January 31, 2024, and at 20:15 p.m. local time on January 30, 2024, a key battle in the 22nd round of the English Premier League is about to begin, and Aston Villa will sit at Villa Park to meet the challenge of Newcastle United.
Aston Villa and Newcastle United have met a total of 53 times in Premier League history, with Villa having a clear disadvantage with 12 wins, 16 draws and 25 defeats.
The two teams have met in the past 6 times in all competitions, and Villa is slightly inferior with a record of 2 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses, however, the one that drew was a friendly match, and the two sides drew 3-3; The two teams met in the first leg of this season, with Newcastle beating Villa 5-1 at home.
It is worth mentioning that the two teams have met in the past 4 times, and each game has more than 3 goals, but the painting style often presents a one-sided trend, either the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overwhelms the east wind, and the two sides can be described as Mars hitting the earth.
The recent situation of the two teams, Aston Villa, under the leadership of legendary coach Emery, has achieved 13 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses in 21 rounds of Premier League games, temporarily ranking 4th in the Premier League standings (3 teams with the same points, goal difference is slightly disadvantaged), Villa's emergence broke the pattern of the old Premier League Big 6.
Newcastle United has become one of the hottest teams in the Premier League after the Saudi consortium took over, they were the teams that broke the Premier League Big 6 pattern last season and successfully broke into the top 4, however, Newcastle United did not go further this season, and only achieved a poor record of 9 wins, 2 draws and 10 losses in 21 rounds, temporarily ranking 10th in the Premier League standings.
The highlight of this campaign, whether Villa can continue the momentum of the first half of the season and continue to become the biggest spoiler on the road to the Premier League this season, every game is the key, and whether they can successfully take revenge on Newcastle and not be killed by their opponents is worth paying attention to.
Newcastle's performance this season is estimated to be difficult to set off storms and waves in the second half of the schedule, but this team itself is not bad, it is a team with a very nervous knife attribute, and it is unknown who will die in the end.
In addition, as we all know, Villa is a team supported by the British royal family, and Newcastle is now the owner of the Saudi royal family, so can this game also be regarded as a competition between the two royal families?
