THE PREDICTION
Wolves fell to a 4-1 defeat away at Man City in midweek, ending a run of five league matches unbeaten in the process. Their opponents Aston Villa suffered a huge shock the day after, losing 1-0 to ten-man Sheffield Utd. Local pride will be at stake this weekend and as such a tight encounter is anticipated with the two sides desperate not to lose, knowing how much a defeat here would hurt their respective support. The reverse fixture saw a late Aston Villa penalty separate the two sides and a similarly close contest looks on the cards with both likely to prioritise defensive stability rather than all-out attack. Goals are expected to be at a premium, so consider under 2.5 goals scored for what would be the fifth time in the last six Premier League games involving Aston Villa.
