Aston Villa vs Man City Prediction

Manchester City may have a cup final coming up four days after this fixture but don’t expect to see a weakened team on show. For Aston Villa, their season has stalled since Jack Grealish picked up his shin injury and they have not had enough quality without their star man. We expect Manchester City to depart Villa Park three points closer to another Premier League title. 

Correct score prediction: Aston Villa 1-3 Man City

Aston Villa Predicted Starting Line-up

Expected Line-up: 4-2-3-1

Man City Predicted Starting Line-Up

Expected Line-up: 4-3-3

Irrespective of how their final eight games play out, Dean Smith will be pleased with a season where they have been out of relegation trouble throughout. Their over reliance on Jack Grealish is understandable but one which must be rectified in the summer. Pep Guardiola will be keen to pick up three points and secure the Premier League title without letting Manchester United have a sniff. However, he will also have an eye on the League Cup Final against Tottenham Hotspur approaching on Sunday.

Since Jack Grealish got injured, Aston Villa have taken only 8 points from a possible 24.
