Aston Villa vs Brentford Prediction Match Details
Brentford are set to travel to the West Midlands to face Aston Villa in a Premier League round-of-32 match this Saturday afternoon at the Villa Park Stadium. Aston Villa is currently in the top four, and they will be looking to maintain their position. Meanwhile, Brentford will be aiming to secure a win to distance themselves from the relegation zone.
Aston Villa Preview & Form
Aston Villa will face Brentford after suffering a 4-1 defeat by Manchester City in their midweek game. Despite this setback, the Villains have demonstrated remarkable resilience throughout the season, making them strong contenders for a top-four finish. The Villains have not achieved this since the 1995–96 season. Currently, the Villans are in fourth place with 59 points, having won 18 matches, drawn five, and lost eight matches in the 31 games they have played so far.
Villa’s form in their last five Premier League games has been inconsistent, with just two wins, one draw, and two losses in their most recent match. However, Unai Emery’s team has shown great spirit and has been a force when playing in front of their fans this season. They have won 11 out of the 15 league matches played at Villa Park in Birmingham, which is an impressive record in the current term of the Premier League.
Brentford Preview & Form
Brentford’s performance in the league has been poor lately, as they have gone on an eight-match winless streak. As a result, the Bees are currently sitting in 15th place in the Premier League after 31 games, with seven wins, seven draws, and 17 losses, giving them a total of 28 points, which is six points ahead of the relegation zone.
The pressure on Thomas Franks is mounting as his team extended their winless run to eight games in their last Premier League match against Brighton at their home stadium, which ended in a goalless draw.
Brentford will be hoping to improve their away form in the league, having lost four consecutive matches in their last five games. However, in terms of scoring goals, the Bees have shown great improvement, having scored at least one goal in four of the five matches. Their defense, on the other hand, has been a cause for concern, as they have only kept one clean sheet during the run.
