Aston Villa – Fulham Preview

Aston Villa will only seek a win when they face Fulham at the Villa Park in a match from the 35th round of the Premier League. Stick with us and these best soccer predictions daily. Are you ready?

 

Aston Villa are 7th in the standings with 57 points, but still having a hope for a Top 6 finish at least. Unai Emery’s team is just three points behind the 6th Nottingham Forest, so they have to win against the Cottagers on Saturday. Another mistake here would be detrimental for their ambitions.

 

Last weekend Aston Villa had a match in the FA Cup and they suffered a heavy loss against Crystal Palace at Wembley. Needless to say, this result didn’t do wonders for Villa’s confidence. It was Aston Villa’s second consecutive defeat in all competitions. Can Emery boost the team’s morale in such an important moment?

 

Marcus Rashford won’t play for Aston Villa again until the end of the season. The English international suffered an injury recently.

 

Fulham are just one position behind Aston Villa in the table as they are 8th with 51 points won. The Cottagers paid a visit to Southampton in the last round, and enjoyed a difficult 2-1 win. The Saints actually got ahead in the scoreline, but Fulham turned it around in the second half. Emile Smith Rowe equalised while Ryan Sessegnon scored the winner in the 92nd minute of the match.

 

Smith Rowe could return in the starting eleven against Aston Villa. The former Arsenal man played as a substitute at the St. Mary’s. Maybe now the manager Marco Silva will trust him in the line-up?

 

That’s the best soccer predictions daily for the upcoming Premier League clash between Aston Villa and Fulham. These two teams are separated by just one position in the standings, but Villa are favorites, especially at home.
