A massive West Midlands derby will be staged at Villa Park in the Premier League this weekend.

Before Betting
The big match in the West Midlands this weekend will pit together fierce rivals in the forms of Aston Villa and Wolves.
Both clubs have endured contrasting starts to the new season, with Unai Emery’s Villa already competing for a spot in the top four places.
Meanwhile, Wolves are in danger of getting cut adrift at the bottom after failing to win in their opening four matches.
A big week for Villa sees them in Champions League action against Young Boys on Tuesday, and how they deal with the added stress of European competition will be key to their chances of success this term.
Their league form has been solid either side of the international break, winning each of their last two, scoring five goals across victories against Everton and Leicester City.
Gary O’Neil will be hoping that his side’s wait for a first league win of the season comes to an end at Villa Park on Saturday.
Wolves come into this fixture against their local rivals after suffering a third defeat of the campaign last weekend when going down 2-1 against Newcastle United.
The Black Country club held a 1-0 advantage up until the final 15 minutes of that fixture when the Magpies turned the game on its head. They have only picked up one point after four matches this term, which is their worst return since the start of the 2003-04 season.
Worryingly, they were relegated at the end of that campaign. It could benefit Wolves to play on the road this weekend after losing six of their last seven at Molineux.
Aston Villa vs. Wolves Prediction
Wolves have a positive recent record against Villa, winning three of the last six meetings, and suffering just one defeat over that period.
A tight fixture is likely for Saturday, and the fact that Villa will be in action in midweek could benefit the visitors. For that reason, a chance is taken on a draw.
