Aston Villa and Sheffield United will meet again in the Premier League Week 18 at the Villa Park Stadium, Birmingham Friday, December 22, 2023. Live streaming information, how to watch, match previews and lineup predictions can be found in this article.
Aston Villa, a team on the rise, will host Sheffield United, a team that is struggling to survive in the Premier League. With an impressive winning record, Aston Villa seems to be the favorite in this match.
Aston Villa have put in an extraordinary performance since their shock 2-0 defeat to Nottingham at the start of November. They have won five of their last six games, and drawn just one.
These wins include a dramatic win over Brentford last weekend, where they managed to turn things around and win 2-1. Alex Moreno and Watkins managed to find the back of the net to reply to Lweis-Potter’s opener. This brilliant result led Villas to break into the top three with 38 points, the same as Liverpool, and only lost 1 point to the leaders of the EPL standings, Arsenal.
However, Aston Villa’s real strength lies in their home form. They have won their last 15 games at Villa Park, including wins over Arsenal and Manchester City. With this winning record, Villa Park has become an almost invincible fortress.
On the other hand, Sheffield United is struggling to survive in the Premier League. They have lost two of their last three games and scored just one goal. Even though they are now coached by Christopher Wilder, it seems that this change has not had a significant impact.
With the current condition of the two teams, Aston Villa is considered to be continuing their positive trend by winning three more points. The reason is, apart from having the opportunity to win the championship title this season, Unai Emery’s team is also very strong playing at home.
