I was really surprised with the performance of Aston Villa against Newcastle. Newcastle was also a team that dismantled Crystal palace that was a strong team before coming up against Aston Villa. I was really confused on who will win. That match had all the attributes to play a draw but unfortunately Aston Villa took it personal. Maybe they were driven by the quest to get back to the champions league, given the way they were knocked out from the tournament. Unai Emery said Aston Villa deserved to play in the champions league again and their performance seems like they mean business. Scoring 4 against Newcastle is still something I can't comprehend. I feel sorry for Chelsea and Nottingham forest because with this form that Aston Villa are right now there is nothing that will stop them from picking up a place in the champions league spot.

Both Aston Villa and Newcastle United currently are on same level of performance but here home advantage works for Aston Villa and they have done impressive job which handed them big win specially after their exit from Champions League now they have good motivation for perfuming like this because this can give them another season into Champions League.

Both teams play open game which increase chance of attacking but in this game Aston Villa were really on target at the end of first half things were looking balanced but in second half Aston Villa were amazing with their passes and conversation which allow them to have thumbing win in this game. Now 5 games left in season their next challenge is against Manchester City at Etihad Stadium which is surely not easy but still they are having fair chance of going into top 5 which will give them another chance of going into Champions League.
