Aston Villa vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

Aston Villa and Wolverhampton Wanderers are set to square off at Villa Park in a mid-table Premier League showdown.

Unbeaten in their last five Premier League home outings on the spin (W3, D2), Aston Villa are three games short of equalling their longest undefeated Premier League home streak since October 2011 (8 that time). Drawing first blood could prove crucial to their hopes of maintaining their eye-catching home form here, as three of Villa’s last four Premier League fixtures won/lost have seen the winner on the day record a shutout. That prospect looks ever so tricky against a Wolverhampton side they have defeated only once across their last seven league H2Hs as hosts (D4, L2). Dean Smith’s men will fall back on their impressive second-half showings at Villa Park this term (SH: W2, D1), returning a +4 goal difference from such plays (GF:4, GA:0).

Meanwhile, Wolves have been nothing if not inconsistent this season, as they remain one of just two sides yet to draw a Premier League match so far (W3, L4). The clean-sheet theme has highlighted the visitors’ top-flight fixtures this term, with all but one of their seven league games won/lost thus far seeing the victor keep the opposition at bay. Subsequently, entertainment has been relatively sparse in Wolves’ Premier League away contests this season, as all three have seen one side fail to get on the scoresheet in matches garnering under 2.5 overall goals (W2, L1). After putting three unanswered goals past Southampton and Watford across their last two Premier League trips, the ‘Wanderers’ entertain the prospect of racking up a three-game winning away top-flight streak without conceding for the first time since March 1960.
