Prediction published on 14/09/2023, 03:01  by Daniel Ngulu in Premier League Predictions

Aston Villa will host Crystal Palace on Saturday looking to get back to winning ways in the English Premier League. The two teams are separated by one point after four rounds of play with Palace in seventh having the edge over tenth-placed Villa. Aston Villa were defeated 3-0 away to Liverpool right before the just-concluded international break. The loss ended an impressive four-match winning run for Unai Emery’s men, one they will be keen to get back to. Their recent home record will have them confident of coming away with a win on Saturday. Villa have won their last eight league matches as hosts. This run started with a 1-0 success over Palace back in March. That win also extended their unbeaten run as hosts against Palace to six games. Villa have won two of their four matches in the league this season which has left them with six points.

Crystal Palace are unbeaten in their last three outings with their last two matches ending in victory. Roy Hodgson’s men battled to win a five-goal thriller against Wolves at home right before the international break. This followed up a 4-2 success against Plymouth that allowed them to advance to the third round of the League Cup. The capital club have amassed seven points in an impressive start to the season. Palace are just three points adrift of the top four. Away from home however in the league, they have struggled to find their footing. The visitors have managed only one win in their last five away outings, losing twice.
