Aston Villa to Continue European Challenge with Win Over Fulham
4686

We have a full round of English Premier League fixtures to enjoy this week, including the meeting between Aston Villa and Fulham.

The match will be played on the 25th of April at Villa Park and the hosts are currently 6th in the Premier League on 51 points while the visitors are in 9th place on 45 points.

Aston Villa come into the game having picked up a point at Brentford thanks to a 1-1 draw in the Premier League on the weekend.

It was Brentford who opened the scoring in the 65th minute but Aston Villa applied pressure in the closing stages and scored the equaliser with only 3 minutes left on the clock.

The draw at Brentford means Aston Villa are undefeated in their last 9 fixtures, all of which have been played in the Premier League.

They have won 7 of those games, including 5 of the last 6 matches. The wins have come over Crystal Palace, Bournemouth, Nottingham Forest, and Newcastle United at home plus Everton, Chelsea, and Leicester City away.

Trends show in all their 4 most recent home matches in all competitions, Aston Villa have managed to keep a clean sheet. Aston Villa have scored 2 or more goals in 6 of their last 7 home Premier League games and have seen over 2.5 goals scored in 8 of their 11 most recent home league fixtures.

Fulham travel to Villa Park on the back of a 2-1 home victory over relegation threatened Leeds United in the Premier League last weekend. With the score 0-0 at half-time, Fulham came to life after the interval and opened the scoring in the 58th minute.

They doubled their advantage 14 minutes later and held on for maximum points despite conceding in the 79th minute.

The win over Leeds United means Fulham have won their last 2 Premier League games, with the previous victory coming over Everton away.

The win at Everton ended a run of 5 straight defeats in the Premier League for Fulham and they can finish inside the top half of the table this season.

Away form in the Premier League shows Fulham have won 2 of their last 6 away league games. They have found the back of the net in 12 of their 14 most recent away Premier League matches, including each of their last 4 on the road.

Team news and Aston Villa are without injured forward Leon Bailey. They also have doubts over the fitness of Boubacar Kamara, Matty Cash, and Philippe Coutinho.

Fulham continue without suspended striker Aleksandar Mitrovic. Defender Layvin Kurzawa is the only injury doubt for the visitors.

Fulham have shown they can score goals on the road this season and should find the back of the net in this game. However, Aston Villa are pushing for Europe and are in good form, meaning they should come out on top at home, with over 2.5 goals scored.
