Where to watch Aston Villa vs. Newcastle
Aston Villa vs. Newcastle will air in the US on ESPN Plus.
Two English Premier League teams, both dealing with injuries, will need to dig deep into their reserves today as Aston Villa hosts Newcastle United in a compelling FA Cup fourth-round match-up.
Currently third in the EPL, Villa reached the semifinals of this tournament last term. But an injury list that includes John McGinn, Boubacar Kamara, Youri Tielemans and Matty Cash means there's a selection headache for manager Unai Emery coming into today's game.
Newcastle boss Eddie Howe will likely be hoping a deep run in the cup may help make up for what has been a disappointing league campaign so far for the Magpies. Marooned in midtable, the inconsistent visitors come into today's game off the back of a morale-boosting 2-1 away win in midweek at Spurs.
That victory came at a cost, however, with Newcastle's inspirational captain, Bruno Guimarães, picking up a hamstring injury, while fellow Brazilian star Joelinton also remains a doubt for this game due to an ongoing groin issue.
Aston Villa takes on Newcastle United at Villa Park on Saturday, Feb. 14. Kickoff is set for 5:45 p.m. GMT local time in the UK, which is 12:45 p.m. ET or 9:45 a.m. PT in the US and Canada, and 4:45 a.m. AEDT in Australia early on Sunday morning.
