Aston Villa Preview – Can Villa pull off unlikely win?
Having managed to register just one win out of their last six matches overall in the Premier League, Wednesday’s hosts, Aston Villa, will do well to grab even a point here against the runaway league leaders, Manchester City, but the hosts have pulled off a couple of upsets at Villa Park already this season.
The 7-2 win over Liverpool and a 1-0 victory over Arsenal show that Villa shouldn’t be completely ruled out here, although results at home this season have generally been quite erratic as their home record of 6-2-6 23/19 indicates.
Villa have won just one of their last four games at home though so perhaps the goals market is the best option here as 10 of Villa’s 14 matches at home this term have seen 3 goals or under to date.
Manchester City Preview – Can City bounce back?
Overall form this season suggests that Manchester City should get themselves back on track with a win in the west midlands on Wednesday night when they travel to Villa Park to take on an out of sorts Aston Villa outfit but they head into this clash on the back of an unexpected defeat.
City were handed what seemed an unlikely 2-1 defeat at home to Leeds United last time out in the Premier League and their lead over rivals Manchester United at the top of the table has now been reduced to eight points.
Nevertheless, City have been in supreme form of late on the road, winning their last nine outings on the trot and the visitors look set to collect a 10th away win on the bounce here but the margin of victory may be less than many expect as five of Man City’s last nine wins have produced 3 goals or less.
