3650

We have several fixtures to look forward to in the English Premier League on Saturday the 19th of February including the meeting between Aston Villa and Watford.

The game will take place at Villa Park and the hosts begin the weekend in 12th place on 27 points while the visitors are in 19th place on 15 points.

Aston Villa come into the match on the back of a disappointing 1-0 defeat at Newcastle United last weekend. The only goal of the game was scored in the 35th minute and Aston Villa could not breakdown the Newcastle United defence in the second half.

That result means Aston Villa have recorded just a single victory in their 7 most recent fixtures in all competitions. The win came away against Everton in the Premier League but there have been defeats at Brentford in the league and Manchester United in the FA Cup plus at home against Chelsea in the Premier League. Aston Villa have also been held at home by Manchester United and Leeds United in the league.

Home from in the Premier League shows Aston Villa have won only 1 of their last 5 league matches. However, they have faced some difficult opposition, with Manchester City, Leicester City, Chelsea, and Manchester United among the teams to play at Villa Park.

Trends show at least one goal has been scored by Aston Villa in all their last 12 home matches in Premier League and they have seen over 2.5 goals scored in their 5 most recent home games.

Watford make the trip to Villa Park having suffered a 2-0 home defeat at the hands of Brighton on the weekend. The goals came at the end of both halves and the result means Watford have failed to win any of their 12 most recent games in all competitions.

Form in the Premier League shows Watford have failed to win any of their last 11 games, losing 9 and drawing 2 of those matches. Away from in the league is poor and Watford have failed to win any of their last 7 on the road, picking up only 2 points at Newcastle United and Burnley.

Trends show Watford have been struggling to score goals in recent Premier League matches and no goals have been scored in their last 4 league games.

Looking ahead to the team news and Aston Villa are without suspended central defender Ezri Konsa. Bertrand Traore has a hamstring injury and is not expected back in action until March.

Watford are without injured defender Nicolas N'Koulou and they have doubts over the fitness of Kwadwo Baah and Oghenekaro Etebo.

Despite Watford’s recent struggles in-front of goal, this match has the makings of being an exciting game.

Aston Villa will be keen to score goals and get back to winning ways at home, which could make for an open match. We expect to see Aston Vila come out on top, with over 2.5 goals and both team teams finding the back of the net.
