Meanwhile, Aston Villa keep on fighting for coming back to the elite division and the team has good chances to achieve that. The club currently occupies the second place in the Championship table with 59 points earned after 31 clashes behind. “The Lions” have very solid and dangerous offense which has scored 48 goals already, however, their defense also feels quite comfortable with 27 goals conceded. Aston Villa have managed to upset Sheffield Utd, Nottingham and Middlesbrough with the same 1:0 scoreline in the recent tackles conducted on the road.
Fulham have won last three head-to-heads against Aston Villa at their own turf. Nevertheless, it is difficult to give an advantage to either of the rivals as both of them are in a good form now, fighting for the highest position, thus, it is most likely that the forthcoming encounter will be finished in a draw.
Prediction for the match: Draw.
