Their resilience was on display in the Europa League on Thursday, where they recovered from a sluggish start and a two goal deficit to defeat RB Salzburg and secure a top two finish in the League Phase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Domestic results have also gone in Villa\u2019s favour, with a win at Newcastle and Arsenal\u2019s defeat to Manchester United leaving Unai Emery\u2019s side just four points off the top of the Premier League. Villa have been strong at Villa Park, collecting 25 points from 11 home league games, a record bettered only by Manchester City and Arsenal despite the recent loss to Everton. As they continue their push for a first ever Premier League title, January has also carried a nostalgic feel with the returns of Douglas Luiz and Tammy Abraham.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SquawkaBet\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"114\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-1024x114.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1415389\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-1024x114.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-300x33.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-768x86.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-1536x171.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-400x45.jpg 400w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-600x67.jpg 600w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-538x60.jpg 538w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-150x17.jpg 150w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-40x4.jpg 40w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1.jpg 1792w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Heading into Sunday\u2019s trip to Villa Park, Brentford are looking to avoid three consecutive defeats for the first time since December 2024, following recent setbacks in their push for European qualification. Losses to Chelsea and Nottingham Forest, including last weekend\u2019s goals from Igor Jesus and Taiwo Awoniyi, saw the Bees slip off course after a strong start to the season, with Forest becoming only the second team to beat them at the Gtech Community Stadium in 2025-26.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the recent dips, Brentford remain in a solid position, sitting eighth and just four points behind fifth-placed Chelsea, far from the relegation worries predicted in pre-season. Away form has been a concern, yet the team has won three of their last four trips across league and FA Cup games. Igor Thiago has been a standout, breaking the record for most goals by a Brazilian in a Premier League season, easing the impact of losing Yoane Wissa and Bryan Mbeumo, with 16 strikes from 23 matches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-aston-villa-team-news\">Aston Villa team news<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Boubacar Kamara, Youri Tielemans, John McGinn and Ross Barkley are out injured.
