Aston Villa hosts Everton in round 5 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, September 18th at Villa Park (Birmingham)
Aston Villa is on the 12th line in the English Premier League standings (four points after four rounds). The Lions have celebrated only one victory since the start of the championship, not counting the success in the League Cup match against Barrow (6-0). The footballers from Birmingham beat Newcastle (2: 0) but lost points in matches against Watford (3-2), Brentford (1-1) and Chelsea (3-0). The game against the Blues at Stamford Bridge on 11 September was a failure for the Lions. The team from Birmingham did not look worse than Chelsea, but the Lions made many individual mistakes and were left without goals scored for the first time in the current season.

Everton is in 4th position in the standings (ten points after four games). The Toffees remain undefeated in the 2021/22 season so far. They gained three victories and one draw in the Premier League and beat Huddersfield in the League Cup (2-1). Leeds remains the only team to take points away from Everton (2-2). On Monday, the Blues secured a 3-1 home victory over Burnley. Everton conceded first in the 53rd minute, but then Michael Keane, Andros Townsend and Demarai Gray scored a goal each and brought the home team a comeback victory.
Aston Villa has not lost to Everton after returning to the elite of English football in the 2019/20 season. In four matches in the Premier League, the Lions achieved two victories and two draws. In the 2020/21 season, Villa scored four points in games against the Toffees. On May 1, the Lions beat Everton away (1-2), and 13 days later, they gained a goalless draw in the postponed match of the 19th round. Most likely, the audience at Villa Park will see a productive game. Since the beginning of the current season, Aston Villa has been creating many dangerous chances in every game, but its defense periodically makes individual mistakes. Everton, which scores an average of 2.5 goals per game, should take advantage of this problem of the home team. But it is likely that the Toffees will also not keep a clean sheet. Villa scored in both home games, while Everton hasn’t conceded only from Brighton since the start of the season.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 goals scored
