NEWCASTLE UTD....1 ASTON VILLA ........0

PAPISS Cisse’s goal handed Newcastle manager John Carver his first home win to leave Aston Villa in the bottom three.

Senegal striker Cisse fired a low shot beyond Brad Guzan from eight yards after Daryl Janmaat’s cross.

Former Wigan midfielder Tom Cleverley missed Villa’s best chance.

And for Newcastle, Ayoze Perez hit the post with a header.

Tim Sherwood’s team have now lost their last seven Premier League games.
