Aston Villa and Burnley will meet again in the Premier League Week 20 at the Villa Park Stadium, Birmingham Saturday, December 30, 2023. Here’s the preview, h2h stats, predicted line-up, TV channel info, live streaming service providers and how to watch online.
Aston Villa have endured a tough time recently, picking up just one point from their last two Premier League games. Even though they had prepared themselves for the challenges that come with being in the top 3 of the standings, they perhaps did not anticipate the decline in performance they experienced.
In their match at Old Trafford against Manchester United last weekend, Aston Villa led 2-0 until the 59th minute and hoped to get three points, but ultimately had to go home without points.
However, Unai Emery’s side have shown their strength at home, with an unbeaten record at Villa Park since April this year. Out of 16 matches, they have won 15 and drawn one. This is an impressive record and shows that ‘The Villas’ will be a tough opponent for Burnley.
Meanwhile, Burnley have struggled this season, getting just 11 points from 19 games and sitting in 19th place. They are five points behind safety and will be hoping to turn things around. Despite losing to Liverpool recently, they have won four points from their last two away games, against Brighton and Fulham.
Ahead of the crucial clash in the 20th round of the EPL, Aston Villa have suffered several injuries recently, with left-back Lucas Digne the latest casualty. He now joins an already long injury list, which includes Emiliano Buendia, Tyrone Mings, Youri Tielemans, Bertrand Traore and Robin Olsen.
Apart from that, Boubacar Kamara is serving a suspension sentence. However, there is good news for Aston Villa, as Matty Cash has completed his suspension and may return to play. On the other hand, Burnley has two injured players, Luca Koleosho and Jack Cork. They will hope that the absence of these players will not affect their performance too much.
Reporting from sportskeeda, according to famous former player Michael Owen, Aston Villa has a high chance of winning if they play seriously. They have won 14 of their last 16 home games in the Premier League, and 14 of their last 20 home games have had an odd goal total. Additionally, 10 of their last 14 home games have had at least three goals.
Meanwhile, Burnley have won just three of their last 11 games, and five of their last eight away games have had an odd goal total. If they can hold off Aston Villa in the first half, they might have a chance to steal a point.
However, with Aston Villa’s strength at home and their impressive goalscoring record – they have scored in their last 20 home games – it seems Burnley will face a huge challenge at Birmingham’s Villa Park.
