Unai Emery's side secured their spot in this stage after a hard-fought 2-1 away victory against Tottenham in the third round. Goals from Emi Buendia and Morgan Rogers were enough to send the Villans through.
The Magpies reached this stage following a dramatic 3-3 draw against Bournemouth that was eventually decided by a penalty shootout. Eddie Howe's men kept their nerve to win 7-6 on penalties, with Aaron Ramsdale emerging as the hero after saving three spot-kicks.
Villa currently sit third in the Premier League and enter this game buoyed by a recent 1-0 win over Brighton. In terms of injuries, Boubacar Kamara, Youri Tielemans and John McGinn remain sidelined.
Newcastle ended a five-game winless run in all competitions with a vital 2-1 win over Tottenham earlier this week. However, they face a major blow as Bruno Guimaraes is out for this cup clash after sustaining a suspected hamstring injury.
The two teams met as recently as January 25, when Aston Villa claimed a 2-0 victory at St. James' Park in league action. Newcastle will be desperate for revenge in the cup, while Villa look to maintain their momentum in what has been a stellar 2025/26 campaign across all competitions.
