Brighton vs Aston Villa – The final match before the World Cup break will take place on Sunday afternoon between Brighton and Aston Villa at The American Express Community Stadium.
The Seagulls will try to secure the fourth straight victory across all competitions to round off their incredible run of performances and achievements.
Under new manager Roberto De Zerbi, Brighton plays appealing football. In their most recent three games across all competitions, they scored ten goals, including three past Arsenal in the Carabao Cup victory in the middle of the week.
Since Unai Emery’s appointment, Aston Villa has also displayed some impressive creativity in the final third. In their previous two games against Manchester United, they scored five goals.
When the Lions defeated the in-form Red Devils 3-1 in Birmingham on Sunday, they displayed particularly strong play. Leon Bailey added another spectacular goal to his impressive run of success.
As a result, we may expect plenty of goals and pyrotechnics when these two teams collide because they are both scorching-hot in the offensive phase.
With a victory today, Brighton might even move into the top five in the Premier League rankings, while Villa is looking for a three-pointer at the AMEX to move up to the 11th spot.
Villa fans should be a little concerned about their team’s winless away record this year. Of their seven league road games, the Lions suffered five losses and two draws.
