Aston Villa v Wolves predictions

Aston Villa and Wolves have both exceeded pre-season expectations in the Premier League this season and the Midlands rivals meet in an intriguing fixture at Villa Park on Saturday.

Ante-post punters who backed Villa at 10-1 for a top-four finish or Wolves at 4-1 to make the top half are having a great run for their money while Unai Emery's Villa are also hot favourites to win the Europa Conference League.

Wolves' hopes of silverware were dashed by Championship side Coventry, who scored two injury-time goals to claim a stunning 3-2 win in the FA Cup quarter-final at Molineux just before the international break.

Despite that disappointment, and injuries to attacking stars Hee-Chan Hwang, Pedro Neto and Matheus Cunha, Wolves should head to Villa Park in good spirits under impressive manager Gary O'Neil.

Their last away trip in the Premier League ended in a 3-0 defeat at Newcastle but since Christmas they have also won 4-1 at Brentford, 4-2 at Chelsea and 2-1 at Tottenham, Villa's main rivals for fourth place.

Villa's home ground was a fortress in the early months of Emery's reign and December's back-to-back 1-0 victories over champions Manchester City and title-chasing Arsenal stretched their winning run at home in the league to 15 matches.

Since then, though, visiting teams have had plenty of joy against a leaky Villa defence and, despite their injuries, Wolves are worth backing to avoid defeat.

Wanderers have a terrific recent record against Villa, winning five, drawing three and losing just one of their nine Premier League meetings since the start of the 2019-20 campaign.

There is a lot to like about Emery's attacking unit, with England striker Ollie Watkins up front and Youri Tielemans, fresh from Tuesday's brace for Belgium against England at Wembley, alongside Brazil's Douglas Luiz in midfield.

The influential John McGinn is still suspended having been sent off in this month's 4-0 home defeat to Tottenham, which followed Villa Park losses to Newcastle at the end of January and Manchester United on February 11.

Since beating City and Arsenal to nil, Villa have conceded 14 goals in six home league matches and that run includes a 1-1 draw with bottom club Sheffield United and a 3-2 win over ten-man Burnley clinched by an 89th-minute penalty.

Lucas Digne's 89th-minute winner helped Villa edge past Luton 3-2 at the start of this month and at the prices they are hard to trust against a Wolves side who seem to relish this fixture.

Aston Villa v Wolves bet builder predictions

Both teams to score
Both teams scored in all six of Wolves' matches against the top five including October's 1-1 draw with Villa at Molineux

Mario Lemina to have over 1.5 shots
Wolves' injury problems mean Lemina could play a more advanced role and he has scored four league goals, as well as an FA Cup winner against Brighton, this term

Nelson Semedo to be shown a card
Villa have some pacy, direct wingers so the Wolves wing-back may well pick up a ninth yellow card in 28 league appearances

Price guide 9-1
