Aston Villa hosts Sheffield United in round 28 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Wednesday, June 17th at Villa Park (Birmingham)
Aston Villa needs to earn points right now. The team is in the relegation zone and takes 19th position, but at the same time, it is only two points behind the 16th place and has a match in reserve. If Grealish and the company manage to stay in the Premier League, they will get stronger and become a tough middle peasant, following the examples of Crystal Palace and Wolverhampton. But if Villa returns to the Championship, the fate of last year's Fulham will follow. It is the most important period of the season. Why is the upcoming match crucial for the hosts? Because then they will play against Chelsea, Newcastle, Wolves, Liverpool, and Manchester United. It will be the most difficult part of the season for the Villains. Points need to earned here and now.

Sheffield got the short straw because the team was confident, played well and showed excellent teamwork before the quarantine. After the break, all the connections between the players will be lost, and they will have to memorize tactical formations anew, and so on. This team plays without top-level players (Villa has Grealish, who will definitely play from the first minutes), so the Blades cannot count on individual skills, and teamwork will not be organized from the first game after the break.
There will not be many goals because the teams will find their game for a long time, and Sheffield prefers to play defense first. I think the hosts have a good chance to earn at least one point, but we shouldn’t wait for goal extravaganza.
Prediction for the match: Aston Villa to win with +0.5 handicap and Under 4.5 goals scored
