Aston Villa vs Celtic Prediction & Picks - Champions League
by Carlos Zabala | in Champions League Picks
After a run of form alongside Liverpool in the Champions League, Aston Villa are slipping out of the top eight with one match to go, but a win on Wednesday against Celtic could well see them through to the last 16.
Emery's Aston Villa have been on a couple of bad streaks this season, the most important being when they went eight games without a win in all competitions since October 26. They look to be going through a second bad patch, having failed to win any of their last three games. Three days before their Premier League clash with Celtic, they were unable to beat West Ham in Birmingham, in a game that Emery's men thought would punish the Hammers' poor defence. It didn't turn out that way and the game ended 1-1 and in fact West Ham managed a better xG of 1.39 away.
Celtic are in it for the playoffs, with 12 points from 7 games and a goal differential of +1 the Scottish team has also won the last 6 games.
