Alan Shearer's prediction

Here's what Shearer told Betfair.

With Aston Villa playing yesterday in the Champions League and playing again in the Champions League next week it gives Newcastle a big chance. Newcastle got battered on Monday. I'm going to go home win because the pressure is on and I don't think it would be acceptable to have that again.

I think there's an expectation that things will change at Newcastle, and I think they might just nick it at home.

Aston Villa are the same as Newcastle; They are up and down being like a yo-yo. As great as that result was in midweek, you don't know what will happen in the league for Villa after that. Nicolas Jackson is clearly enjoying himself at Aston Villa and got a couple of goals on Wednesday. I'm going to say a Newcastle home win, just.

Prediction: Newcastle win
