Brighton vs Aston Villa Odds : Predictions on Amex fixture

Two new managers come face to face at the Amex this afternoon as Unai Emery and his Aston Villa side take on Brighton, under the leadership of Roberto De Zerbi.

Both of these sides have gone through sticky spells following managerial departures but come into today’s encounter on the back of a decent set of results.

The home side Brighton have actually won their last two Premier League games, beating Wolves away in their last game and thrashing Chelsea 4-1 in their last match at home.

Aston Villa meanwhile have picked up following the dismissal of Steven Gerrard, winning impressively 3-1 over Manchester Utd as Unai Emery rebuilds his squad.

The bookies have priced Brighton up as the favourites for this one at around 8/11, a price which will not excite too many punters today while the draw is at 3/1.

Aston Villa are available at 4/1 which looks a much better price to get involved with.

Beating Manchester Utd will have done wonders in confidence for the team and that price looks more than a hint of value.

Villa were beaten handsomely by Newcastle Utd in their last away trip but Eddie Howe’s side are a class above Brighton at the moment.

4/1 appeals and that price should be taken.
