Aston Villa is aiming to avoid a repeat of their 4-1 Premier League defeat to Manchester City, where they had 32% possession and 8 attempts on goal. Jhon Durán scored for Aston Villa, while Manchester City had 25 shots and 11 on target. Aston Villa has scored 8 times in their last six fixtures, with an average goal per match of 1.33. They have not been beaten by Brentford in their last three matches.

Brentford’s previous match with Brighton & Hove Albion resulted in a 0-0 draw, with 33% possession and 5 shots at goal. However, they have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, with 11 goals scored. Brentford’s defensive performance is also lacking, as they have not won away from home in their last 4 league games.

Aston Villa boss Unai Emery will not feature Matty Cash, Emiliano Buendía, Boubacar Kamara, and Tyrone Mings due to injuries. The Villans may use a 4-4-1-1 formation, with starts handed to Robin Olsen, Ezri Konsa, Diego Carlos, and more.

Brentford manager Thomas Frank faces numerous availability issues, including injuries to several players. The team is expected to use a 3-5-2 system, starting with Mark Flekken, Mathias Joergensen, K. Vassbakk Ajer, Nathan Collins, Mads Roerslev, Frank Onyeka, Vitaly Janelt, Mathias Jensen, Sergio Reguilon, Ivan Toney, and Bryan Mbeumo.
