How to watch and live stream Newcastle United vs Aston Villa

Aston Villa head to Newcastle United on Sunday afternoon hoping to go one better than the point they were made to settle for in their meeting with Leeds United in the week.

Villa, who had been 3-1 up thanks to Jacob Ramsey and Philippe Coutinho, were pegged back in the second half and ended the game with ten men after Ezri Konsa’s sending off.

Newcastle, meanwhile, are going comparably well; they’d only won a single game all season until a couple of weeks ago, but since Eddie Howe had guided them to successive victories over Leeds United and Everton.

They’re likely to be without Kieran Trippier though, after he went off injured in the week.

It’s a highly anticipated match between two sides who have big ambitions but aren’t where they want to be right now - this is how you can follow the action.

Newcastle v Villa kicks off at St James’s Park at 2:00pm on Sunday, 13 February.
