Liverpool vs Aston Villa

Reigning champions Liverpool are looking to snap out of their slump as they host Aston Villa in an English Premier League fixture on Saturday.

Things have gone awry for the Reds lately, while the Villans are showing some good form at the moment. One similarity between both teams heading into this clash is that they often struggle to keep things tight at the back and could be set to serve up goals.

Liverpool News

Things appear to be getting worse for Liverpool, who have now lost six of their last seven matches across all competitions. They were beaten 3-2 at Brentford last time out in the Premier League and have dropped to seventh in the table, seven points behind leaders Arsenal.

Anfield appears to be losing its status as a fortress, with Liverpool losing their last two home matches, including a 3-0 EFL Cup defeat to Crystal Palace in midweek. However, they have picked up four wins at home this season, and manager Arne Slot will be desperate to get things back on track.

The major problem for Liverpool is a vulnerable defence that has failed to keep a clean sheet in the last 10 matches across all competitions, going behind in the last seven fixtures. All 10 matches have produced over 2.5 goals, while they have scored in their last five Premier League home games.

Aston Villa News

Aston Villa are one of the most in-form teams in the Premier League at the moment, having picked up six wins in their last seven matches across all competitions. They edged out a 1-0 home victory over Manchester City in their previous fixture.

That run has seen Aston Villa rise in the table as they now sit eighth, level on points with Liverpool. Unai Emery’s team have also won their last two Premier League away matches.

Goals are not a problem for Aston Villa, who have scored first in four of their last five matches across all competitions. However, they have conceded in three of their last four matches, with all three fixtures producing over 2.5 goals.

Head to Head

Liverpool have eight wins and three draws, while Aston Villa have earned just one victory in the last 12 matches. The Reds were unbeaten last season, claiming a 2-0 win at home before a 2-2 away draw in the reverse fixture.

Verdict

Liverpool v Aston Villa

Nine of Liverpool’s last 10 matches have produced over 2.5 goals, which is likely to be the outcome in this clash. With both teams scoring in seven of their last 10 meetings, a repeat could be considered here.

Liverpool have gone behind in their last seven matches, while Aston Villa have opened the scoring in four of their last five matches. The Villans could be backed to grab the opening goal on Saturday.
