Premier League: Liverpool vs. Aston Villa Preview, Odds, Predictions, Picks

August 29, 2023 By Nikola Velickovic Leave a Comment

Liverpool’s stunning comeback against Newcastle has certainly captured the attention of football enthusiasts worldwide. Once again, the team from Anfield did something amazing in the moments when nobody expected to see that. Aston Villa posted three wins in a row under the radar, displaying outstanding football, focused on scoring goals, and dominating the field. Unai Emery’s team is making a strong case for the spot, which secures the UEFA Champions League next season.

Preview

Liverpool (-125) had come back from the dead once more, this time in Newcastle, where they beat the Magpies 1-2. The Reds’ situation at the halftime didn’t promise at all, with them having a 1-0 minus and Virgil Van Dijk sent off. 

Though, the resilience of this unit emerged to the surface. Newcastle tried to score and seal the game, but Klopp’s boys were more than firm in the back line. Then came the final 10 minutes and the stoppage time in which Darwin Nunez showed his class, scoring twice and shocking the fans at St. James’ Park.

As anticipated in any Liverpool game, goals take place frequently and on both ends, and this trend has continued unabated in the Premiership, with all three encounters thus far ending with both teams scoring. It’s worth noting that the team’s striking efficiency has not wavered, with an impressive seven out of eight matches, including the pre-season fixtures, delivering three or more goals.

Despite a disappointing 1-5 loss in their opening EPL match, Aston Villa (+420) has made it pretty clear they have high ambitions this season. That statement was confirmed with three wins in a row following a loss at St. James’ Park, in which this team had a goal difference of 12 netted and only one scored goals.

Their dominant run kicked off with a resounding 4-0 victory over Everton at the comfort of their Villa Park. Following their domestic success, the team had a challenge in the UEFA Conference League, where they showcased their strength by securing a magnificent 5-0 victory over Hibernian in Scotland. And just when we thought they couldn’t impress us further, they maintained their winning streak with a solid 1-3 win against Burnley at Turf Moor.

Unai Emery has created a strong and powerful squad in all the lines that likes to dictate the tempo and take the ball in its possession. 

Latest News

Van Dijk is suspended and won’t be in the protocol for Sunday’s event. Thiago Alcantara is injured, while Ibrahima Konate’s status still isn’t clear.

Philippe Coutinho is injured for the Villains, Tyrone Mings, too, the same as Leander Dendoncker, Emiliano Buendia, and Jacob Ramsey. The goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez is questionable before this event, and that’s a big problem for Emery.

Head to Head Games

Liverpool won last year at Villa Park, 1-3, but after that, failed to repeat the success at Anfield, where the game ended without winners, 1-1. 

Prediction

The Reds’ vulnerable defense will be even more prone without Van Dijk. Though, their attack is incredibly good these days, and we believe they are going to win. The odds are solid, -130. For those who don’t like this pick, feel free to go with both teams netting. 

Pick: Liverpool -125

Here are more previews for this weekend:

  • Napoli vs. Lazio 
  • Borussia Monchengladbach vs. Bayern Munich
  • Arsenal vs. Manchester United
  • AS Roma vs. AC Milan
  • Brighton vs. Newcastle
