Aston Villa take on the visitors Brentford in the round 13 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, October 23rd at Villa Park (Birmingham).
Aston Villa fails to deliver results that match ambitions. The “Villans” actually relatively recently were the representative of the Championship. And the fact that they managed to rise in the Premier League and gain a foothold there at a fairly high level was largely based on the genius of Grealish. But Jack could not be kept after the 2020/2021 season. The fact that without him, having come in the course of last season, Gerrard was able to eventually finish in 14th position, a worthy result. But, on the other hand, Stephen did not offer anything extraordinary. In the new cycle, his wards were actually fighting for survival. Yes, there was a series of 4 matches without defeat. But after 0-2 Chelsea started talking about a possible change of manager. And after 0-3 with Fulham, the resignation happened. It remains to be seen how it will affect the team - a minimum of time has passed before the reporting match.

Brentford made their Premier League debut last season. It's an original project, with a lot of Danish influence, from the players to the manager, Thomas Frank. And such a structure allows the 2nd year at the top level to be carried out at a decent level, despite the departure of Eriksen in the summer. Yes, there is not enough consistency, and there are many misfires and defeats. Recently there was a stretch with 1 point in 3 rounds (a draw with newcomer Bournemouth, with a couple of defeats), but after 1-5 with Newcastle, the team, as if nothing had happened, took a confident 2-0 with Brighton - Ivan Tawney scored a double. In the mid-week, the team held back Chelsea, playing with them in a goalless draw. But how much strength is left after such matches, even in such a busy schedule?
Brentford has never lost in 8 head-to-head fights. Moreover, the scenario was also strictly identical: first an away draw, then a home victory. Aston Villa are seen as favorites but are unlikely to win right now simply because they sacked Stevie G – we expect Brentford not to lose.
Prediction for the match: Brentford to win with +0.5 handicap (X2).
