West Ham vs Aston Villa Odds
West Ham Team News
West Ham beat Freiburg 5-0 on Thursday night and qualify for their third European quarter-final in a row.
That was their first win after two games. West Ham is now returning to obligations in the Premier League.
They are 7th in the table with 12 wins and 43 points and they are just four points behind Manchester United who is 6th.
In front of West Ham are three complicated games. They will play against Aston Villa, Newcastle, Tottenham, and Wolves away in the next three weeks. West Ham have mixed results against the top teams. In 12 games they have five defeats and five wins.
In the league West Ham has two wins in the last nine games and they aren’t in good form. Poor results in those four games will mean that a place in Europe next season will be hard to catch for West Ham.
Five of their last eight games ended with BTTS and six ended with over 2.5 goals.
At London Stadium West Ham is good. They suffered only one defeat since October in all competitions.
Aston Villa Team News
Just like West Ham, Aston Villa also played on Thursday night and also produced one memorable performance. They beat Ajax at home 4-0 and qualify for the quarter-final of UEFA Conference League.
After a very poor performance against Tottenham on Sunday they needed this.
In the Premier League Aston Villa is still in the pole position for the 4th place, but just two points above Tottenham with a game more.
Aston Villa have a couple of tricky games until the end of the season. Seven of their last ten games are against the teams in the top 11. They will play against Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester City, West Ham, Brighton, Wolves, and Chelsea. The schedule isn’t naive.
Since Boxing Day, nine of ten Aston Villa’s games ended with over 2.5 goals and seven ended with BTTS.
Potentially a big problem for Unai Emery could be the injury of Ollie Watkins, who was injured in a game against Ajax and is questionable for Sunday, and John McGinn is suspended for three games.
Away from home, Aston Villa is on the run of three consecutive wins.

Both teams are probably slightly tired, but in a good mood after the two convincing victories in Europe.
We are expecting a spectacular game. Who is the favourite? It’s hard to predict. Aston Villa need three points to stay in 4th place and for West Ham three points are important to stay in the race for Europe next season.
We are expecting goals here.
