Newcastle United forward Alexander Isak will have the chance to equal a club record when the Magpies face Aston Villa on Saturday.

Eddie Howe's side are closing in on Champions League qualification after recording five consecutive victories.

With eight games left to play, the Magpies are sitting in third position with a three-point cushion over fifth-placed Tottenham Hotspur, who have played a game more.

After securing away victories over West Ham United and Brentford in their last two matches, Newcastle will head on their travels for a third consecutive game.

They will face a very different Aston Villa side to the one that they thrashed 4-0 when the two sides met at St James' Park in October.

Aaron Danks was in caretaker charge for the reverse fixture, but the Villans have been rejuvenated under Unai Emery's watch.

If Newcastle are to claim their first Premier League double over Aston Villa since the 2013-14 season then they will need to end Aston Villa's seven-game unbeaten run, which consists of six wins and a draw.

Having scored eight goals in his 13 league appearances for the Magpies, Isak is expected to lead the line for the visitors at Villa Park where he will have the chance to equal a club record.

Isak has found the net in Newcastle's last three away games, scoring a brace against Nottingham Forest before finding the net in victories over West Ham and Brentford.

As a result, Isak will be looking to become the first Newcastle player since Peter Beardsley to score in four consecutive Premier League away games.

The Sweden international will also be aiming to help the Magpies win four successive away matches for just the third time in the Premier League era.

The visitors will be unable to call upon Allan Saint-Maximin, but Howe has hinted that Miguel Almiron could be involved following a spell on the sidelines.
