Game Preview
The pressure will be increasing on Unai Emery’s Aston Villa this weekend, as they bid to enhance their chances of finishing in the Champions League spots. The Villa dropped important points at home to Leeds United last Saturday, meaning that they have now failed to win in three of their last four.
Chance creation has been one of their biggest challenges, creating an xG of just 1.32 in their matches away from Villa Park. However, they have been efficient in the final third, scoring 1.38 per game. Despite this, Villa have won just 46% of their road fixtures, conceding 1.31 per game.
Wolves already look destined for relegation to the Championship, but they have shown fight in their last three games, taking a notable point against Arsenal last week. Preparations are already underway for their return to the second tier, but the club look set to stick with their preferred 3-4-2-1 formation.
Wolves have been notably stronger in home fixtures this season, winning six of their ten points at Molineux. However, their defensive weakness is incredibly hard to overlook. Wolves have allowed 1.82 goals per game, with that average rising to 2.14 based only on their home defensive record.
Wolves vs. Aston Villa Picks
The home team have already proven to be tricky customers against the best teams in the league this season, and this will be one of their most important clashes remaining this term. Therefore, a chance could be taken on Wolves to upset the odds against their local rivals.
