Aston Villa Vs West Ham Premier League Prediction Match Details
Aston Villa will return to Premier League action as they face West Ham United on Sunday noon at Villa Park. Can the Villains continue their league unbeaten streak, or will the Hammers deliver a statement at Villa Park?
Aston Villa Preview & Form
Aston Villa will return to Premier League action following a disappointing 1-0 defeat against Monaco in Tuesday’s midweek Champions League, with the result leaving them out of the automatic knockout spot in the competition. However, Unai Emery’s men have remained unbeaten in the last four league matches, winning two and playing two draws. Their last league match saw the Villains take a vital point in their visit to Emirates as they came from two goals down to end the match in a 2-2 draw. Currently, they sit eighth in the Premier League standings with 36 points, two points behind the top six and four points behind their fans’ desperation for a top four finish.
Unai Emery’s side has remained strong when playing at Villa Park, having remained unbeaten in the last eight home games across all competitions and been undefeated in the last ten home league games.
West Ham Preview & Form
West Ham enters Graham Potter’s third game as manager following a disappointing 2-0 defeat against Crystal Palace at the London Stadium last weekend. In the game, the Hammers attacking frontline failed to register a shot on target. Last weekend’s defeat against Palace now means the Hammers have only won one of their last four league games and are just ten points away from dropping into the relegation zone. They have also conceded two goals or more in each of their last five matches across all competitions while scoring only four goals. Currently, the Hammers sit 14th in the league standings with 26 points from 22 games.
The Hammers have also been poor in their road games, as they are currently riding on a two-match losing streak while only recording one victory in the last five matches. One positive thing in their road games has been that the Hammers have scored in each of their last five away matches.
