ASTON VILLA – WEST BROM STATS

Billa have picked up just 4 points from their 5 EPL matches. They have conceded 9 goals and scored just 5. Their cup form is more impressive with 2 wins in the league cup to get them to the last 16.

West Brom has 10 points from 5 games with a sole loss in the EPL. They have scored 7 goals and conceded 4.

TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY

Villa have had a tough start under new manager Paul Lambert but their performances are beginning to improve. They have won just one of their 5 EPL games so far, losing 3. Things were looking up however when a 1-1 draw at Newcastle was followed up by a 2-0 win at home to Swansea two weeks ago but last week’s EPL fixture say them revert back to their poor early form in a 4-1 loss at relegation favourites Southampton. A cup win in extra time over champions Man City will hopefully be the spark they need to get their season on track.

WBA are flying high this season and currently sit in 4^th place in the table. They have won 3 of their 5 games this season, including wins against Liverpool and Everton who would be expected to finish above them in the table. The sole defeat this year is a 3-0 drubbing at Fulham but a stupid early red card for Peter Odemwingie contributed heavily to that.

1X2 BET ASTON VILLA – WEST BROM PREVIEW

Aston Villa are small favourites here as the home team which I think is a fair reflection of the game. Villa to win is 2.5 with a number of books and I’ll put this bet on with skybet.

ASIAN HANDICAP PREDICTIONS

If you think Villa will continue with their poor league form from last week then you may prefer to look at West Brom in the AH market. An interesting bet is West Brom +0, also known as Draw no Bet, which will give you your stake back on a draw.

188bet have West Brom +0 at 2.2 if you like the away team. Click here to bet.

TOTAL GOALS PREDICTIONS

Only 2 of WBA’s 5 EPL games have finished with above 2.5 goals and both of those were games where a team lost a man early to a red card and conceded goals after it. In their 11-11 games this year under 2 goals a game has been the average.

Villa have also had 2 of their 5 games end over, both of those being defeats. If they can keep the game close early I expect a low scoring tight game.
