Aston Villa - West Bromwich (Premier League)

Aston Villa meets West Brom in a battle between two teams fighting for survival in the Premier League. The odds for the game offered by the leading bookmaker bet365 are as follows: 2.88 for a home win, with a draw at 3.10 and 2.88 for the victory of the guests.

Two defeats from two matches after the arrival of the new coach Tim Sherwood leave Aston Villa in a serious danger of dropping out of the Premier League. The defeat by Newcastle on Saturday was the seventh consecutive in the league. Today`s hosts have failed to score in nine of the last 12 games and from August last year have not scored more than one goal in the Premier League. Aly Cissokho and Nathan Baker has not played against Newcastle because of minor injuries, but are expected to be in line for today`s match. Ron Vlaar returned to composition after serving punishment.

The new manager of West Bromwich Tony Pulis managed to change the situation in the team, which is no longer in the relegation zone. "Thrushes" are very strong in defensive plan. They scored just three goals in their last three league games, but did not allow a goal, which brought them seven points over this period. If we count the victory with 4:0 over Newcastle in the FA Cup, West Brom has not conceded a goal in seven of the last ten matches in which Tony Pulis is ahead of the team. Saido Berahino and Brown Ideye left with injuries in the match against Southampton at the weekend. Also with trauma in the camp of West Bromwich is Victor Anichebe.

Aston Villa are favorites for victory in this meeting, but the team do not know the taste of victory from the beginning of December, while West Brom is unbeaten as guests after the arrival of Tony Pulis.

Recommended bets:
For West Bromwich @ 2.88 at bet365
For Under 2.5 goals @ 1.50 at Betfair
