Home
Aston Villa
A strong, well-drilled team. Villa tend to win games in front of their own fans at Villa Park by controlling midfield rather than overwhelming opponents.

Leeds United
A steady mid-table team, Leeds defend well on the road at Villa Park but can struggle to turn possession into chances.
