A stunning first half to the season has put Aston Villa in the box seat for a Champions League finish this term. Unai Emery’s side will be looking to continue their stunning form on Friday when they chase a fourth straight victory in the competition against Sheffield United.
Before Betting On Aston Villa vs Sheffield United
Aston Villa could be set to cause a massive shock in the Premier League this term, as the Midlands giants are well in the mix for a title fight in the second half of the campaign. The Villa have won a joint-league high of 12 matches this term, and they have suffered just three defeats. However, their recent form has been excellent after picking up three straight wins against Man City, Arsenal, and Brentford.
Villa needed to be at their very best to land maximum points in their latest match, as they battled back from a goal down to secure victory at Brentford. Their winning effort was netted with just five minutes remaining by Ollie Watkins. The winner was scored just under ten minutes after Alex Moreno had levelled the scores.
Chris Wilder will be expecting to see more from his Sheffield United side this weekend after his team dropped to the foot of the Premier League standings following a 13th defeat of the campaign against Chelsea last Saturday. The Blades have won just twice in 17 matches this term, and they are the lowest scorers after netting just 12 times in the competition.
The Blades failed to ask many questions of Chelsea in their latest match in the competition, registering just a single shot on target at Stamford Bridge. However, a return to winning ways on Friday would aid their relegation battle, as they could move up to 18th in the standings.
