This weekend, the Guardiola-Elf can further increase the pressure on the Champions League winner. Early Saturday afternoon there is a duel between Manchester City and Aston Villa!
The English champions have seemingly lost their home form this season and have already lost more points at Etihad Stadium than at any point in the season. With the newcomer from Birmingham now a guest in Manchester, who can compete after two league wins in a row with a broad chest.
Nevertheless, a point win would be a big surprise – in the duel between Manchester City and Aston Villa bookmakers offer only odds of 1.10-1.12 for the home win offered.
Manchester City – Statistics & Current Form
The Guardiola protected had to accept the first goal during the week in the premier class. The Champions League debutant from Italy, Atalanta Bergamo, was even able to take the lead with a foul penalty. Finally, thanks to a brace from Sergio Agüero and a flawless hat-trick by Raheem Sterling (within eleven minutes), the big favorite beat 5: 1.
In the clear victory Guardiola acted without a trained center-back in the starting lineup. Aymeric Laporte is injured for a long time due to a knee injury. Nicolas Otamendi and John Stones found themselves only on the bench again, the two trained six Fernandinho and Rodri took the place in central defense.
19 points from nine games are a very strong value, but given the results in recent years, perfectionist Pep Guardiola can not be completely satisfied with the recent performances in the English Premier League. Only two of the four previous home games have been victorious.
Against the Tottenham Hotspurs there was despite impressive superiority, a 2: 2, the last home game against the Wolves ended even with a 0-2 defeat. After winning 18 out of 19 home games last year, Manchester City will not be able to reach that 2019/20 mark.
Despite these two slips in the Etihad Stadium another loss against the newly promoted is hardly conceivable. Nonetheless, Manchester City and Aston Villa odds on the three-way market are not recommended. The fact that Manchester City have lost just one of the last 42 Premier League games against a league rival with an English coach (38 wins, three draws, one defeat) speaks against a slip-up. Roy Hodgson defeated the Skyblues in December 2018.

↳ Ederson – Mendy, Otamendi, Stones, Walker – De Bruyne, Gundogan, David Silva – Sterling, Aguero, Bernardo Silva

Aston Villa – Statistics & Current Form
Not so long ago, Aston Villa was still the first pursuer of the then “Big Five” in the English Premier League. Between 2007 and 2009, the club from Birmingham finished third consecutive sixth place. After that, the shape curve showed clearly down and the season 2015/16 was one of the darkest hours in the club’s history. With only 17 points, there was the descent into the championship to cope.
After three years in the English substructure Aston Villa is now back in the million dollar Premier League. The team of head coach Dean Smith can be quite satisfied with the season so far. The Villians collected in the first eight league games eleven counters and ranked so to place twelve of the English Beletage.
It was in each of the last two league games to celebrate each victories. After a 5-1 victory in the newly promoted duel against the Canaries of Norwich City, Brighton & Hove Albion was defeated 2-1 after the international break. Thus, the Smith-Elf celebrated in the last two Premier League games more victories than in the 20 games before (1-3-16 balance sheet). A third league victory in a row would definitely be a sensation, especially as it was the first time since April 2010, the case that Aston Villa would win three Premier League games in series.
Aston Villa has not been able to win against the reigning champion for thirteen games, with one defeat in the last ten games against the champions. Should the climber be late on Saturday at half-time and lose the match, between Manchester City and Aston Villa for the half / final 1/1 standings, only odds below 1.50 are offered.
