Aston Villa Preview – Can Villa win back-to-back?
Aston Villa were handed an opening day defeat away from home at Watford in the Premier League but the west midlands club bounced back with last weekend’s 2-0 home win over Newcastle United at Villa Park and they’ll be looking for more of the same on Saturday against Brentford.
Former Brentford manager, Dean Smith, will be up against his old club but loyalties won’t come into question here as he looks to guide his Villa outfit to at least a top half finish or higher this term and having won three of their last four matches in the top flight, the hosts will be in confident mood here.
In addition, Villa are unbeaten in their last six meetings at home against Brentford.
Brentford Preview – Can Bees sting hosts?
Brentford manager, Thomas Frank, will be delighted with four points from the opening two matches of this new Premier League campaign but Brentford face a tricky outing to the west midlands this Saturday to face Aston Villa at a noisy Villa Park.
An opening day 2-0 home win over Arsenal handed Brentford the perfect return to the English top flight after an absence of 74 years and not even the most ardent of Brentford fans could have expected this kind of result to start this season.
Back-to-back clean sheets is also impressive but The Bees have failed to beat Villa on each of the previous six occasions at Villa Park and this could be a tough 90 minutes for the London club.
