Aston Villa host Newcastle United at Villa Park on Saturday in the Premier League’s early kick-off, with both sides beginning the new campaign harbouring ambitions of pushing into the top four.
Villa were formidable at home last season, taking forty points from nineteen games, losing only once. Their underlying numbers were equally strong, with the second-highest home xPTS (37.48) and excellent penalty-box control, allowing just 5.53 shots in the box per game. Despite that dominance, they had the joint-highest both teams to score rate in the league at 74%, often conceding in matches they controlled. Unai Emery has been tasked with reshaping the squad after key loanees Marco Asensio, Marcus Rashford, and Axel Disasi returned to their parent clubs.
