Newcastle v Aston Villa live stream and teams: Coutinho fit, Trippier doubtful

The Magpies followed up a victory over Leeds United with a home win over Everton on Tuesday night.

That result has seen Eddie Howe's side jump out of the relegation zone and into a much stronger position in their battle to avoid the drop.

Villa are currently sitting 11th in the table following their 3-3 draw with Leeds earlier this week and could move into the top half of the table with a positive result.

Newcastle v Aston Villa: What has been said?

Eddie Howe on Allan Saint-Maximin: "He's unique as a person and as a player. I'm excited by him.

"Every time he steps onto the pitch, there's that feeling that you don't quite know what he's going to do and how he can win you this game because he is a match-winner, there's no doubt about that.

"Some of the things he did in his last game, I thought, were exceptional, but I want to see that again and again on a more consistent basis."

Steven Gerrard on Philippe Coutinho: "He was desperate to come back to the Premier League and we've given him everything he needs to go out there and perform.

"For me, the good thing about Phil is he's so humble, so level-headed, he's so grounded that you wouldn't think you were dealing with a world-class star if you spoke to him day-to-day. He's just a great human being.

"His vision is a major strength to him as a player. He's lovely on the eye to watch, his technical ability is high level. I don't think I have to go on about Phil Coutinho the player, you just have to watch and admire the class with which he goes about it.

"For me, the key thing was to get him up to speed from a physical point of view and we're still working on that. He can get fitter and stronger and he will do with more training and games.

"Then it was about getting him enjoying his football again, being around the boys, smiling and looking forward to playing. You can see in his performance that he feels this is his stage again."
