Before Betting On Brentford vs Aston Villa

It has been a stunning first half to the season for Aston Villa, as they have certainly thrown their name into the hat for a shock finish in the Champions League places this term. The Villa come into the weekend sitting third in the standings, but they could potentially move to the top of the standings if they are able to record a third straight victory at Brentford.

The Bees come into the weekend in a slightly more challenging position. Thomas Frank’s team have suffered defeats in four of their last five in the Premier League, which includes defeats in each of their last two. However, the Bees remain eleventh in the overall standings, and they could move up to ninth if they are able to land maximum points on Sunday.

Brentford will be boosted by their record against the Villa in the league, as they have suffered just a single defeat in ten clashes. Their only loss over that period was a 4-0 defeat at Villa Park last term. However, Vila’s away record at Brentford is really poor, losing on four of their five visits this century. But, Emery has overseen an excellent period of results in the capital for Villa, as they are unbeaten in all six matches.

The Bees have been in poor form in recent weeks, with their four defeats in five meaning that they have now suffered more defeats than they had in their previous 18. However, they have suffered just four defeats in 27 matches at home since the start of last season in the Premier League.
