Aston Villa hosts Burnley in round 13 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Thursday, December 17th at Villa Park (Birmingham)
Last season, as a newcomer to the Premier League, Dean Smith's wards were forced to fight for survival and successfully retained their place in the elite. As for the second season in the Premier League, the club from Birmingham looks more competitive against the background of the strongest teams in the country. Aston Villa occupies a position in the middle of the standings and has certain prospects for getting in the European Cup zone. The club competently carried out the transfer campaign, having strengthened all problematic positions. The management signed goalkeeper Martinez, defender Cash, midfielders B. Traore and Barkley, and forward Mapei. All newcomers quickly adapted to the team’s style. Grealish, Douglas Luiz, Mings, McGinn, and Konsa are in good shape.

Burnley is an English club with very modest capacities. Sean Dyche regularly works wonders with his men, keeping a place in the Premier League. Burnley is once again at the bottom of the tournament standings, where competition is very high. During the starting segment of the championship, the team managed to gain only one victory, having beaten Crystal Palace at home (1:0). The Clarets don’t perform active work in the transfer market, relying on proven personnel. Thus, only the age midfielder Stephens and Norris, who was taken as the third goalkeeper, joined Burnley’s squad in the last transfer window. The team needs reinforcement in the attacking line, where Wood is in weak shape, and there is no sensible replacement for the Australian forward now.
At this stage of the English Premier League, the club from Birmingham looks much more preferable. Burnley is very weak in the attack, where there is no pronounced scorer. Dean Smith's players show an attractive level of football with skillful ball possession. The Lions will be the favorite of this confrontation and are obliged to add three important points to their asset.
Prediction for the match: Aston Villa to win
