Events
Match Events
- 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Newcastle United FC and Aston Villa FC get this one started.

- 10' Allan Saint-Maximin has been relatively quiet despite scoring 23 goals in his last 444 appearances.

- 20' Newcastle United FC looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker scoring 0 goals.
- 25' The 29-year-old Matty Cash has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 30' Newcastle United FC have won 455 goals from 342 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.

- 53' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 58' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

- 89' The referee calls foul for Douglas Luiz. He receives a Yellow card.
- 90' A moment of madness from Leon Bailey on 90 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Aston Villa FC will be frustrated.
- 90' It is a substitution in Newcastle United FC team. Joe Willock is replaced by Bruno Guimaraes on 90 minute.
