    Can Aston Villa Continue Shock Title Push with a Win Over Sheffield United?
    20/12/23 3356

    Unusually high Probability percentage for one of the teams in this match. A genuine opportunity for this team to shine again or a deceptive trap, luring in with its high probability? Let's delve into the details.

    Aston Villa come into the match having beat Brentford 2-1 away last weekend. With the game approaching half time, it was Brentford who took the lead.

    Into the second half and Brentford were reduced to 10 men. Aston Villa took full advantage and scored the equaliser in the 77th minute before netting the winner 8 minutes later.

    The win at Brentford means Aston Villa are undefeated in their 9 most recent fixtures in all competitions.

    There have been wins over Fulham, Manchester City, and Arsenal at home plus Tottenham Hotspur away in the Premier League. Aston Villa have also beat AZ and Legia Warsaw at home in the Europa Conference League.

    Trends show Aston Villa are undefeated in 27 of their last 32 Premier League games.

    They have won their last 15 home Premier League matches in a row and have kept a clean sheet in their last 2 home league fixtures.

    Aston Villa have scored 3 or more goals in 6 of their 8 most recent Premier League games on home soil.

    Sheffield United travel to Villa Park on the back of a 2-0 defeat at Chelsea in the Premier League last weekend.

    Having held the hosts to a 0-0 draw at half time, Sheffield United conceded the first goal in the 54th minute and the second goal just 7 minutes later to slump to another defeat.

    The loss at Chelsea means Sheffield United have won only 1 of their 6 most recent fixtures, all of which have been played in the Premier League.

    The win came at home over Brentford but there have been defeats at home to Bournemouth and Liverpool plus away to Burnley.

    Trends show Sheffield United have won just 2 of their 18 most recent games in all competitions.

    They have won 2 of their last 17 Premier League matches and have lost 8 of their last 9 away league games on the road.

    The Blades have been blunt when playing away and have failed to score a goal in 3 of their last 4 away Premier League fixtures.

    Team news: Aston Villa are without the injured duo of Tyrone Mings and Emiliano Buendia. Boubacar Kamara is suspended following his red card at Brentford while Bertrand Traore and Kortney Hause are fitness doubts.

    Sheffield United make the trip without Chris Basham and Tom Davies, who are injured. There are also doubts over the fitness of Daniel Jebbison, Rhian Brewster, and Rhys Norrington-Davies.

    It is fair to say Sheffield United look out of their depth in the Premier League right now whereas Aston Villa are flying.

    We expect to see the hosts record a comfortable win in this game considering their recent home record, keeping a clean sheet in the process.
