Aston Villa take on the visitors Sunderland at “Villa Park” in the round 18 of the English Championship. The game will be played in Birmingham on Tuesday, November 21st.
Aston Villa didn’t succeed at returning to the Premier League last season. The club overcame through some changes last summer and is now determined to come back to the English elite division in this season. After 16 matchdays played, “The Lions” occupy the sixth place in the Championship table with 26 points earned and 22-15 goal difference. “Villans” picked up 15 points with 11 goals for and seven goals against in eight home clashes. The team was only once beaten in face of its fans in this season, having lost 1:2 to Sheffield Wed in the latest gameweek.

As for Sunderland, the club completely failed in the Premier League last season, however, it hasn’t stopped falling since then as “The Black Cats” have been unable to win across 13 consecutive fights in this season already. The team recorded five draws and eight defeats since the 26th of August. With 16 rounds behind, Sunderland settle on the last 24th position in the Championship standings with 10 points taken and 20-31 goal difference, being under the risk of relegation from the elite division to the League One in two years. “The Black Cats” got seven points with 12 goals for and 17 goals against in eight away clashes.
Taking into account the opponents’ statistics in this season, I believe that the hosts must beat the outsider at their home field as Sunderland are really looking miserable now.
Prediction for the match: Aston Villa to win.
