THE PREDICTION
A fantastic defensive display from Aston Villa saw them come out winners away at Leeds this past Saturday, with an early goal from Anwar El Ghazi securing a 0-1 victory at Elland Road. Dean Smith’s side are in Yorkshire once again on Wednesday, as they travel to bottom-placed Sheffield Utd. Whilst the visitors have a number of injury concerns, the most recent one being that of goalkeeper Emi Martinez who was unable to take goal kicks vs Leeds. Martinez’s presence is expected to be crucial as to the outcome of this match. Should the Villa stopper take his place between the sticks as per usual, then Smith’s men should have more than enough quality both in defence and going forward to inflict yet another defeat upon the surely Championship bound Blades.
