Leeds United will travel to Aston Villa for their next Premier League assignment, looking to get back in shape after recent slump. It will be the same case for Aston Villa, who go to this game placed 11th with 26 points, four ahead of 15th placed Leeds United. There has been some optimism in the Aston Villa camp in recent matches following some good transfer activity in January. The arrival of Philippe Coutinho has particularly lifted spirits, while they’ve also bolstered defensively with the arrival of Calum Chambers and Lucas Digne. Some of this is already paying up; they came from 2-0 down to draw with Manchester United, Coutinho playing a central role there. In their last game, they claimed a first clean sheet in five matches courtesy of a 1-0 win over Everton. Three of their last five matches have produced over 2.5 goals and both sides have scored in three of the five. Each of their last four home matches have also produced over 2.5 goals.

Leeds United are a pale shadow of the team that did so well in the league last season. At the moment they are just seven points above the relegation zone. They are coming from a 1-0 loss to Newcastle United and have been conceding a lot of goals lately. Three times in their last five matches, Leeds have conceded two or more goals and they have no clean sheet in those five matches. Both teams have scored in three of Leeds United’s last five matches. It hasn’t been any rosier away from home for Leeds United. In their last five away games in the league, Leeds have failed to score in three, while four of the five have produced over 2.5 goals.
