3rd November Bets

LOST -5

Match: Newcastle United vs Aston Villa

Pick: Over 2.5 Goals
Odds: 1.8 (ladbrokes)
Stake: 5 units

Both Aston Villa and Newcastle have good attacking players, but unfortunately their defences are lacking. Newcastle seems to have undergone a revival recently, but I still believe that their early season form was a result of their poor quality of defense, and think Aston Villa should be able to grab at least 2 goals in this match. Although Aston Villa looked jaded recently, this was because of their hectic schedule, and they have since had 4 days rest since Thursday for this game. Owen is close to making a return and should feature in the 2nd half, and I will be surprised if Newcastle can't get at least a goal of their own.
