One of the fixtures of the 29th round of the English Premier League will take place on Sunday in London, where at the Olympic Stadium, West Ham will host Aston Villa. Here's the forecast for this match from Dailysports.
West Ham
The "Hammermen" lack consistency in the current season. They alternate between good performances and dismal ones, which prevents them from seriously contending for European berths. Not long ago, West Ham, securing victories in two encounters, halted an unsuccessful streak that saw them go eight matches without a win in all competitions. Last weekend, David Moyes's team played a draw at home against Burnley - 2:2. And heading into the match against the "Villans," the capital club comes off a convincing 5-0 victory over Freiburg in the Europa League Round of 16. Considering that they are already ten points adrift of the top five in the Premier League, perhaps it's worth considering a bet on the Europa League? Moreover, the opponent is formidable - Bayer Leverkusen!
Aston Villa
In contrast to their opponent, Aston Villa is participating in the Conference League, yet the "Villans" also demolished Ajax 4-0 in a home fixture. However, the situation in the league table is more favorable for Aston Villa, as the team is battling for a top-four spot and a Champions League berth. Last weekend, Unai Emery's charges suffered a crushing 0-4 defeat at home to Tottenham. It's noteworthy that Tottenham are the main pursuers of the "Villans." The defeat narrowed the gap between the two teams in the league table to 2 points. Prior to this match, Aston Villa had secured three victories in the league.
