Aston Villa vs Fulham Prediction & Betting tips
On Sunday, at 16:30, Aston Villa and Fulham play an interesting duel in Birmingham, in the 30th round of the Premier League. It is a very important match for the guests prepared by Scott Parker. He fully rewarded the London bosses, who did not want to dismiss him when the team went catastrophically. Meanwhile, Fulham has recovered and now hopes to save from relegation!
Aston Villa is in a quiet moment and plays without a goal at the end of the season. Of course, the financial stake is still important, because in the Premier League any advanced place in the standings is important! But Villa no longer has the pressure of relegation, and that should lead us to a spectacular and open game. Very offensive in the previous season, Aston Villa changed its style and is no longer so generous on the attack phase, also placing great emphasis on safety and organization of defense. Fulham will certainly work hard to be dangerous in the opponent’s box, and statistics show that Londoners are more efficient when playing at home on Craven Cottage.
With the exception of Bobby Reid from the guests, there are no last minute batch issues in any of the camps. Aston Villa is in 10th place (goal average 39-30) and has 41 points, being eight “lengths” from West Ham, the team in 5th place. The problem is that Aston Villa has only top teams, such as Arsenal, Everton. , Liverpool and Tottenham, who have better chances to end the season in force. In short, there is zero chance that Villa will reach the next edition of the Europa League. Instead, Fulham is in 18th place (goal average 23-38), the first to be relegated. However, Parker hopes that the Serbian Mitrovic will return inspired by the international adventure, for a goal scored in the match.
Only two points separate Fulham from a lifeline, but the three failures suffered in the last four stages certainly do not help the Londoners: 0-1 with Tottenham, 0-3 with Manchester City and 1-2 with Leeds – all home games! Aston Villa is also in a sharp dive, because it has not won in five stages. But here is the perfect opportunity for a return of cherries.
Meanwhile, Dean Smith’s team lost to Sheffield United (0-1) and Tottenham (0-2), drawing with Newcastle (1-1) and Wolverhampton (0-0). With Tottenham, Villa finished the first half without a shot on goal, something that has not happened at the Birmingham club for 7 years! Let’s say that, in the round, Aston Villa won in London with a definite 3-0, the goals being scored by Grealish, Hourihane and Mings. It was the third match in the last five live matches in which at least three goals were scored and we would not be surprised by another spectacular game.
