Aston Villa vs West Ham Odds

How both teams go into Aston Villa vs West Ham

This match will be an immediate rematch following their FA Cup third-round encounter, where Aston Villa came from behind to secure a 2-1 victory. Aston Villa are on a four match unbeaten run, a set of results that have lifted them to eighth in the league and just four points off the Champions League places.

Graham Potter recently made his Premier League return as West Ham’s new head coach in that Villa loss. This will be his fourth match in charge and his third in the Premier League. He hopes to quickly integrate his new players into his strategy. He takes over a West Ham team sitting in 14th place, 10 points above the relegation zone. This position is due to only one victory in their last five league outings, which included back-to-back losses against Liverpool and Manchester City—results that ultimately cost Julen Lopetegui his job.

Pau Torres continues to be unavailable for Aston Villa, and there is currently no timeline for the return of John McGinn and Ross Barkley, the latter having recently suffered a minor calf injury.
