19. the Premier League round will also feature a derby between Aston Villa and Wolverhampton, alongside Arsenal vs. Newcastle and Chelsea vs. Manchester City. What to expect from the match and what to bet on?
Aston Villa have been on a roll under new coach Unaeus Emery, winning four of their three games, including triumphs against Tottenham and Manchester United. They are just four points behind seventh place, which guarantees European Cups.
Even Wolves have benefited from the change of coach and the game looks better under Julen Lopetegui. The weekend’s narrow defeat to Manchester United is proof. Still, Wolves are in the relegation zone, they are only one point behind 17th placed West Ham from 19th place.
Aston Villa’s key figures
The Villans rely on offensive star Ollie Watkins, author of four goals and four goal assists. The defensive midfielder Douglas Luiz is an indispensable part of the line-up, who is also very productive (3+3).
Key Wolverhampton players
The visitors rely on Ruben Neves, the Portuguese midfielder and captain has scored four times so far. His compatriot and mobile winger with a low centre of gravity Daniel Podence has scored three times and assisted once.
Under Emery, the giant potential of the Villans attack is finally showing. They have scored more than once in four of their five games, peppering Manchester with five goals in the two games between them.
Wolves, on the other hand, are clueless in attack, but that’s not just an issue this season. With ten goals scored, they have the worst attack in the competition, having struck more than once in only two of their 17 league games so far.
Considering Aston Villa’s form under the new coach, the improved performance of its dysfunctional defence until October and also given the poor productivity of Wolves, the Villans can be expected to win on home soil.
