Betting on Aston Villa F.C.
After suffering three defeats in a row, Aston Villa returned to its winning ways when it defeated Everton 2-0 away from home, which was a very important result because it helped the team to regain confidence in itself. The Villains are positioned in 11th place in the overall standings, 10 points from the European places, so it no longer looks like a goal the team would be able to achieve.
However, the Aston Villa team is nowhere near the relegation zone either, so all it can do is to try to close the campaign in the best possible way. The team has high hopes of scoring against its opponents, as it has not lost to Crystal Palace in their last 5 meetings in all competitions.
Probable lineup (4-4-2): Emiliano Martinez; Matty Cash, Ezri Konsa, Tyrone Mings, Lucas Digne; John McGinn, Boubacar Kamara, Douglas Luiz, Jacob Ramsey; Ollie Watkins, Leon Bailey.
Betting on Crystal Palace
The Crystal Palace team was held to a draw by Liverpool the previous day, a result that has it sitting in 12th place in the overall standings, a situation very similar to that of Aston Villa.
These occurrences have been becoming a regular feature of this squad, which manages to make it very difficult for teams of high caliber, but which does not have the necessary consistency to fight for a place in European competition. This is said because the team has failed to win in the last 8 Premier League matches it has played, drawing 5 of its 6 most recent games.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Vicente Guaita; Nathaniel Clyne, Joachim Andersen, Marc Guéhi, Tyrick Mitchell; Cheick Oumar Doucouré, Albert Sambi Lokonga; Michael Olise, Jordan Ayew, Jeffrey Schlupp; Jean-Philippe Mateta.
JefeBet Prediction
Four of the last five meetings between the two clubs at Villa Park have ended with less than three goals in the final score, a trend that could continue this Saturday considering the way the Eagles approach their games.
In fact, it is no coincidence that the team has scored fewer than 3 goals in 6 of its 7 most recent English league matchesEven if the team tries to cut off all its opponent’s plays, but it does not have much fire in its own attack, and it is the fifth team that has scored the fewest goals so far this season (21).
Therefore, it is expected that this match will not have many goals reflected in the final score, and will probably end with another draw for Crystal Palace.
Prediction: Under (AST 1-1 CRY).
