West Ham vs Aston Villa Prediction & Betting Tips (17 March)

7th in the Premier League with 4 points behind 6th place, West Ham hopes to secure a European folding seat at the end of the season. The London team recently went through a zone of turbulence by going 6 games without a win in the league, 3 draws and 3 defeats. The Hammers subsequently responded with successes against Brentford 4-2 and Everton 1-3. Last weekend, however, they failed to defeat relegated Burnley 2-2. This week, West Ham brilliantly qualified for the quarter-finals of the Europa League by inflicting a real correction on Friborg 5-0. In line with its previous exercise, Aston Villa impresses observers this season and mixes with the fight to take part in the next Champions League.

Indeed, the Birmingham-based team is now in 4th place in the Premier League with 1 game more and 2 points ahead of 5th. Last weekend, the Villans carried out a very bad operation by conceding, at home, a heavy setback against their closest pursuer Tottenham 0-4. They thus ended a series of 3 consecutive victories in the championship Fulham, Nottingham Forest and Luton Town. This week, Aston Villa outclassed Ajax 4-0 to advance to the quarter-finals of the Europa Conference League.

West Ham still cannot count on replacement winger Maxwel Cornet on the flank. Added to this is the uncertainty surrounding the participation of starting left back Emerson. Scorer last weekend, former Lyonnais Paqueta (3 goals and 5 assists in PL) should obviously start this Sunday.

He could still be associated with influential attackers Kudus (6 goals and 3 assists in PL) and Bowen (14 goals and 3 assists in PL). On the final day, it was substitute Ings who equalized in added time.
