West Ham vs Aston Villa Prediction & Picks - Premier League

 by Bradley Gibbs in Premier League Picks

The first Saturday late kick-off of the new Premier League season sees West Ham and Aston Villa go head-to-head at the London Stadium, where both teams will be looking for a positive start. The Hammers will begin their journey under new manager Julen Lopetegui, while the Villans will be looking to make yet more progress under their stewardship of Unai Emery. This a tough one to call, that's for sure.

Our West Ham vs Aston Villa Prediction

From a betting point of view, I cannot be drawn to visiting wing-back Matty Cash, who really does look generously priced to work the West Ham keeper at least once in this fixture. Sure, Cash is far from Villa's biggest goal threat, but he shows a fantastic willingness to get forward, while he's no stranger to cutting in and shooting, let's face it. As the stats above show, he shot plenty of times last season, while an average of 0.55 shots on target per 90 minutes suggests that he's a little more likely to hit the target. Our Best Bet: Matty Cash Over 0.5 Shots on Target. 

Prediction:

Matty Cash Over 0.5 Shots on Target

Odds : +230
