Aston Villa vs Bristol City Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Steve Ashfield | in Championship Predictions
Aston Villa start the game in seventh place but are only outside the play-off places on goal difference from Sheffield United. Their 1-0 win at Middlesbrough on Saturday ended a run of five league games without a win and boosted their hopes that 2018 might be the year when they finally get back into the Premier League. They are unbeaten in their last four home league games but the last two have both ended in draws. Altogether this season, Villa have drawn eight league games and with them only being seven points adrift of the automatic promotion spots, those stalemates could prove vital, something their opponents will agree on as they've also had eight draws. City lost at home to league leaders Wolves on Saturday and that last minute winner took them out of the top two replaced by Derby County. City are a point behind the top two but after this game don't play in the Championship again until January 13th due to FA and Caraboa Cup commitments. It's to be hoped the Caraboa Cup run won't affect their promotion challenge too much but they have only won one of their last three league games. Away from home they have gone 11 league games without defeat but five of those games have ended in draws. This should be a tight game and the best bet seems to be to go for a draw.

Our Aston Villa vs Bristol City Prediction
Both sides should be in contention for at least a play-off position this season. Bristol City dropped out of the top two at the weekend, but it took a late goal from the league leaders to get the three points. Villa had a good away win at Middlesbrough and these two sides look evenly matched. Go for a draw in this game.
