Aston Villa vs Newcastle United Bet Builder Tips: Ollie Watkins Anytime Goal Scorer In Our 8/1 Treble

Aston Villa play host to Newcastle United this weekend and our betting tips can be backed at just over 8/1 in a treble.

Unai Emery’s troops welcome their opponents to Villa Park in Saturday’s first televised fixture of the new Premier League season and they’ll be confident.

Pre-season has gone well for the club with victories over AS Roma, Villarreal and St Louis and they have signed well including striker Evann Guessand from Nice, goalkeeper Marco Bizot and Yasin Ozcan at centre-half.

Newcastle, meanwhile, have not had their issues to seek in the transfer market with the Alexander Isak saga ongoing.

However, they are beginning to find their feet with Malick Thiaw and Jacob Ramsey incoming.

Eddie Howe’s team have not had the best pre-season but victory on the opening day would certainly make up for it.

According to football betting sites, the hosts are backed to prevail on Saturday, priced at 23/20 which means £10 returns £21. As for the Magpies, leading bookies have them at around 21/10 to win on the road which would win you £31 for £10 spent.

Aston Villa vs Newcastle United Bet Builder Tips

• Sandro Tonali to be carded @ 2/1
• Ollie Watkins anytime goal scorer @11/8
• Over 9.5 corners @ 4/7

Sandro Tonali to be carded @ 2/1

Newcastle’s midfielder is as combative as they come in the engine room and for a yellow card to come his way, it really is excellent odds with leading bookmakers.

He picked up six bookings last season and the desire to lay down a marker with the match on the telly could prove tantalising for the overzealous Italian.

You can back the ref taking Tonali’s name at 2/1.

Ollie Watkins anytime goal scorer @ 11/8

The striker has been electric at Villa with his 87 goals for the club in 223 outings. He is a proven goal scorer and will be determined, as all hitmen are, to get off to a strong start with an opening day strike.

Watkins loves a goal against Newcastle, too, with five in his last nine and we’re backing him to do it again.

First goal scorer is always a trickier prediction but the law of averages suggests anytime is more likely.

Over 9.5 corners @ 4/7

The corners market is a super popular one and both sides have rampant attacking players looking to make their mark early on.

Expect plenty of shots on goal, saves, blocks and corner kicks.

Five-a-piece brings this element of our treble home.
