Aston Villa vs Fulham Prediction: Will the home side live up to expectations?

Aston Villa will face Fulham in round 33 of the EPL. Will the home side live up to expectations?

Aston Villa is looking good under Unai Emery. After 32 games, the Birmingham side is sixth in the standings and has a good chance of qualifying for the European competitions at the end of the season. The Lions have 51 points, only two points less than relegated Tottenham. However, there are plenty of contenders for the fifth position - in addition to Tottenham and Aston Villa, there are also Liverpool and Brighton. It should be noted that in recent times, they have not suffered a setback as they have won seven of their nine games, with only two draws. Before last week, they had a five-game winning streak but failed to beat Brentford on the road (1:1).

Fulham can already take credit for the season. Now, however, after 31 games, the Londoners are ninth in the table with 45 points, so they're in the middle of the table. Here, of course, we praise Mark Silva, who has been doing an excellent job for several years. Only in March and early April, they suffered a series of five defeats in a row. But then, Fulham secured two wins, beating Everton 3:1 and Leeds 2:1.

The bookmakers believe Aston Villa has a better chance of winning this match, which we agree with. We'll give Fulham some credit - they're good, but they've only improved in the last two rounds. On the other hand, Birmingham's situation is much more systematic and stable - they've been clinching win after win for two months now with almost no mistakes. And now they have a great chance to break into the top five of the EPL, which should undoubtedly be taken advantage of, especially with the support of their fans. We suggest you not make anything up and bet on the home team.
