Club Brugge vs. Aston Villa Odds
Game Preview
The Belgian powerhouse is in the UCL once again, and now they aim to go one step further than a year earlier – to the Round of 16. They beat Lommel on the road this Friday, 0-1, even though we didn’t see Ivan Leko’s boys delivering some high-class football.
Timothy Eyoma netted an own goal at the end of the first half, and that kinda disrupted the hosts, who couldn’t bounce back. Meanwhile, Brugge didn’t press at all, it really seemed as if they were saving power for this event.
Counting the preseason, Villa has 6 straight games without a win, losing 5 of them. The visit to Hull snapped this terrible streak, with the Villains taking one point against the Tigers following a goalless tie.
Emery’s crew is without a goal in the Premier League. The attackers are in hibernation, but we have to say Ollie Watkins left the club, and the Villains still haven’t found a proper replacement.
Club Brugge vs. Aston Villa Head to Head
In November 2024, Brugge beat Villa in the UCL League phase, 1-0. After that, they met in the knockout stage, where Villa triumphed on both occasions, 1-3 in Brugge and 3-0 at home.
Club Brugge vs. Aston Villa Predictions
Since Villa looks pretty bad these days, we aren’t that keen to bet on its victory. Instead, we will bet on both teams scoring here, because the guests have a terrible defense, but on the other hand, a very solid attack that’s capable of netting at least once against Brugge.
