Brentford can move into the top half of the Premier League standings this weekend when they play host to Aston Villa at the Gtech Community Stadium on Saturday afternoon. The Bees are in 11th place, three points behind the Villans in 10th and having played a game less. Check out our match prediction below!
After going eight matches against this opponent without defeat, Brentford have now failed to win any of their last five against Aston Villa in the top flight (W0 D2 L3). Having won the reverse fixture 3-1 at Villa Park back in December last year, the Villans now have the opportunity to do the double over the Bees for the first time since the 1946-47 season.
With just three points separating these two in the league standings, there is very little to choose between them according to the latest bookmaker odds. Let's get into the key stats and try to identify a betting angle.

Brentford - Aston Villa: Form Analysis
Brentford are enjoying a solid run of form in the Premier League lately and navigated a tricky encounter against Everton last time out to claim a 1-1 draw here at the Gtech.
With that result, the Bees extended their unbeaten league run to three matches, following back-to-back wins over Leicester City (4-0) and West Ham United (1-0).
However, the hosts' home record has been much less impressive, with that stalemate against the Toffees marking their seventh match across all competitions without victory at this venue. During that period, they were also knocked out of the FA Cup by Plymouth.
The last time Brentford failed to win seven league homes in a row was in 2006!
Meanwhile, Aston Villa will be feeling really good about themselves after taking a commanding 3-1 lead in the first leg of their Champions League round of 16 tie against Club Brugge in midweek.
In league terms, the Villans suffered a heavy 4-1 defeat to Crystal Palace in their last match, a result that brought an end to a three-match unbeaten run, which included beating Chelsea and taking a point of league leaders Liverpool.
On the road, though, the visitors have found positive results hard to come by, as they have lost their last two league outings and have managed only a single victory since the start of December (W1 D1 L5).

Brentford & Aston Villa Squad Analysis
Given their recent run of form, it would come as no surprise if Brentford are unchanged in this match.
If that is to be the case, Yoane Wissa and Bryan Mbeumo will be the ones to watch, with the pair having scored 28 of the Bees' 48 goals this season while notching up six assists combined.
Kevin Schade has featured in every Premier League game this season for the hosts and has nine goal involvements, including scoring two in his last five starts.
Marco Asensio has scored five goals in his last four matches for Aston Villa!
The Spaniard has taken to English football exquisitely since arriving on loan in January and will be firmly in contention to make the starting lineup this week after his heroics in the FA Cup.
Marcus Rashford was handed a start in the Champions League in midweek but struggled to influence the match and was hauled off at the hour mark. He could be the one to make way this week.

Our Brentford vs Aston Villa Prediction
Brentford are enjoying an impressive goal-scoring season, having found the net a total of 48 times in just 27 games, but they have also conceded 43, which is the second-most of the first 14 teams in the league standings.
The only team to have shipped more than the Bees in the top half of the table is Aston Villa, who have let in 45 to date, including two or more in six of their last seven on the road in the Premier League. That said, we are not expecting a clean sheet from either of these sides in this one. Our Brentford vs Aston Villa prediction is both teams to score.
