These two clubs just met in a friendly at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, which was a 3-3 final, and they meet again on Saturday here, when they kick off their new Premier League campaigns at St James' Park. Eddie Howe took less than two years to turn this Newcastle program around, finishing fourth in the EPL table last season, going 19-5. They had the third-best goal differential (+35) in the league, trailing only Manchester City and Arsenal. Aston Villa is also coming off a strong campaign, finishing 7th in the EPL table. We do not think there will be the fireworks of a 3-3 match here though as the defensive intensity should be much stronger here, and we like the under as this is likely a 'feel it out' kind of contest and we think goals will be few and far between.
