Anyone who correctly predicts the starting line-up deserves a lifetime's free subscription to H&V. But no one will.

[Legion]

Obviously a reminder is needed.

[caster troy]

Gabby on the bench.

[caster troy]

Guzan, Lowton, Vlaar, Clark, Lichaj, Holman, KEA, Ireland, Bannan, Weimann, Bent.

[Monty]

Oo-er. Nice and ballsy but a bit mad and light in midfield numbers. Might be a bit overrun today.

[l_mckay]

Nice to see Guzan get a chance in goal

[David_Nab]

Very lightweight midfield ..no Delph even on bench

[Karlos96]

We're gonna get overrun in midfield.

[Fin Feds Dad]

Would have preferred Baker at centre half - Clark is a disaster there.

[caster troy]

Would have preferred Baker to Clark at centre back. Apart from that I agree on dropping Given and N'Zogbia. Should be interesting.

[Percy McCarthy]

Wouldn't have guessed Bannan or Clarke, so wouldn't have won the subscription.

Brad Guzan comes in for Shay Given while Ron Vlaar and Karim El Ahmadi return to the starting line-up. Newboy Jordan Bowery is on the bench alongside the recovered Gabby Agbonlahor.

VILLA: Guzan, Lowton, Vlaar, Clark, Lichaj, Holman, KEA, Ireland, Bannan, Weimann, Bent. Subs: Given, Baker, Agbonlahor, N’Zogbia, Burke, Bowery, Willliams.

NEWCASTLE: Krul, Simpson, S Taylor, Coloccini, Santon, Ben Arfa, Anita, Cabaye, Gutierrez, Ba, Cisse. Subs: Williamson, Gosling, Amalfitano, Birgimania, Marveaux, Obertan, Harper.

I'm surprised Bannan plays, but come on you Villa boys.

[PaulMcGrathsNo5Shirt]

I wouldn't want to break any rules in asking for a stream, but is it against the rules to ask for any pubs or clubs that may be showing the game?
