Aston Villa in turn were the biggest loser last Premier League season as they earned only 17 points in 38 matches. During their preseason the Villans played 7 friendly matches recording 5 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss. Despite quite good results in preseason Aston Villa were beaten by Sheffield Wednesday on the first Championship matchday. This way they extended their poor 14-game winless streak consisting of 13 defeats and 1 draw. Aston Villa won their last match on 6 February against Norwich City.
Despite huge difference in form, the visitors are much skilled and experienced side with Champions League winner Roberto Di Matteo as manager. We expect Aston Villa to prove their worth and return to the winning ways.
Prediction for the match: Aston Villa to win.
