Game Preview
Villa Park will witness the home team go head-to-head with a surprising Brentford side. Villa has had a season to forget, 3 draws, 5 losses and only 2 wins in their first 10 Premier League games have them at the bottom of the table, in 17th place, only 3 points on top of league worst, Leicester City. Villa have only been able to score 7 goals in 10 games, making them the third worst scoring team in the Premier. Brentford, on the other hand, want to do better than their 13th place last season and have been working towards that. 3 wins, 5 draws and 3 losses see as they’re currently 9th in the table.
Steven Gerrard gave Villa fans great news, as he confirmed that Cameron Archer is back and available for selection, after the 20-year-old striker was struck down with a sickness bug the past week and a half. Elsewhere, Villa is closely monitoring Lucas Digne and have penciled in their trip to St James’ Park next week as a possible return date. Ludwig Augustinsson (hamstring), Jed Steer (Achilles), Diego Carlos (Achilles) and Boubacar Kamara remain sidelined. If Villa’s performances don’t get better, it’s rumored that Mauricio Pochettino is lined up to replace Gerrard as head coach.
Brentford come into this game after stopping Graham Potter’s Premier League win-streak, as Chelsea lost points for the first time since Potter’s in charge. Kepa Arrizabalaga denied Ivan Toney on several occasions, which means that Brentford’s most in-form player is still on fire, creating chances. Brentford manager, Thomas Frank, provided an interesting phrase after the game. “Eighteen months ago, on almost the same night, we were promoted, and they won the UEFA Champions League”, Frank mentioned.
It’ll be interesting to see if Brentford’s midweek draw against Chelsea will boost their confidence ahead of Sunday’s visit to Villa Park. It’s now or never for Steven Gerrard, if he wants to keep his Premier League job.
