On This Day
A bad day at the office for Villa but nowhere near as bad as some under the previous manager, despite the scoreline. Villa taught Newcastle a footballing lesson in the first half, Newcastle taught Villa a lesson in capitalising on your luck in the second.
Lucas Digne makes his 25th appearance for the club, and first as substitute, to leave a record of W8 D5 L12, 1 Goal, 4 Assists and 4 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
