Crystal Palace

With the appointment of Austrian Oliver Glasner as head coach, Crystal Palace has created a significant cushion above the relegation zone. Recently, Crystal Palace has delighted their fans with quality performances, remaining unbeaten in their last six Premier League matches, securing five victories in this period.

Last weekend, Oliver Glasner's men recorded another victory, triumphing 3-1 in an away match against Wolverhampton. Despite trailing 0-2 at halftime, the "Wolves" tried to stage a comeback, but Crystal Palace quickly restored their lead. Regarding their home record, the "Eagles" have won three consecutive matches at Selhurst Park.

Aston Villa

The "Villans" have been a revelation this season, managing to secure a Champions League spot from the clutches of more seasoned opponents like Tottenham, Chelsea, and Newcastle. Additionally, Aston Villa performed admirably in European competitions, reaching the semi-finals of the Europa Conference League. Currently, Aston Villa sits in fourth place in the Premier League table with 68 points.

It must be acknowledged that after securing their Champions League spot, Aston Villa has somewhat relaxed in the Premier League. Nonetheless, their recent opponents have been formidable. For instance, in the previous round, Aston Villa played to a 3-3 draw at home against Liverpool, following a 2-2 home draw against Chelsea. The only questionable result was an away loss to Brighton. In their last three away matches, Aston Villa has secured only one win while suffering two defeats.
