Premier League
The English Premier League match between Aston Villa and Fulham is coming up. Aston Villa is in excellent form and on a winning streak, having not lost any of their last nine league matches, with seven of those games resulting in victories. This impressive record speaks to the quality of their performances, and the team as a whole is playing with much more confidence since the arrival of their new coach, Unai Emery. Despite starting the season in the lower half of the table, they are now in a position to “fight” for a spot in European competitions next season, as they are only two points behind the team in the Europa League spot. They have won their last four home games in a row, scoring nine goals in the process. With their current positive momentum and high-quality performances, they are undoubtedly the favorites to win, and they will be motivated to avenge their 3-0 defeat to Fulham earlier in the season. J. Steer (goalkeeper), M. Cash (defender – 1 assist), and B. Kamara (midfielder – 1 assist) are unavailable, while P. Coutinho (midfielder – 1 goal) and L. Bailey (forward – 4 goals / 3 assists) are questionable for the game. The expected lineup for Aston Villa is 4-3-3 with E. Martinez in goal, A. Young, E. Konsa, T. Mings, and L. Digne in defense, D. Luiz, J. McGinn, and J. Ramsey in midfield, and E. Buendia, O. Watkins, and B. Traore up front.
Fulham ended their losing streak by winning their last two matches against Everton and Leeds United. They have already achieved their primary goal for the season, which is to avoid relegation. Therefore, they can play without any pressure or motivation to achieve a particular result for the rest of the season. However, they have been having some problems in their defensive phase recently, having conceded 14 goals in their last seven games across all competitions. L. Kurzawa (defender) and A. Mitrovic (forward – 11 goals / 1 assist – the team’s top scorer) are out of action for this match. Fulham is expected to play in a 4-2-3-1 formation with B. Leno in goal, K. Tete, T. Adarabioyo, T. Ream, and A. Robinson in defense, J. Palhinha and H. Reed in midfield, and H. Wilson, A. Pereira, and Willian in attacking midfield, with D. James up front.
