Game: ASTON VILLA vs WEST HAM
Type: ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE
Date: 18 April, 2009
PREVIEW
Aston Villa's hopes to securing the coveted 4th spot to qualify for next year's Champions League action seems to be falling in tatters after a series of dismal displays. They have now gone 10 matches without a win in all competitions, and hovering just a point above Everton on 5th place while Arsenal are now 8pts ahead of them. At home, the host have not won in their last five and conceded a whopping average of 1.80 goals!
West Ham will be hoping to put a nail in Villa's coffin when they meet tonight as they themselves are sitting at 7th position with the slimmest of hope to chase both Villa and Everton. They have only lost once in their last six matches, shutting out oppositions in four of them. Away from home, the Hammers seems to be finding it hard to find the back of the net, scoring an average of 0.95 goals only.
KWIK STATS
HOME > ASTON VILLA
AWAY > WEST HAM
THE PICK
This match has goals written all over the wall. Aston Villa will be gunning for a win to keep up with Arsenal, and with their leaky defense i would expect West Ham to sneak in a goal or possibly two. OVER 2.5 GOALS is the call here.
