A demoralised Liverpool may be out of the title race and host a Tottenham side striving for a top-four finish. Aston Villa are also in pursuit of Champions League football, but should face stiff opposition from Brighton at the Amex Stadium. We’ve provided recent form and head-to-head statistics for five matches we think have the potential to end in a draw.
3 – Brighton vs Aston Villa
Brighton and Aston Villa meet at the Amex Stadium in the Premier League this weekend. Aston Villa thrashed the Seagulls 6-1 when the teams met at Villa Park in September.
Brighton are winless in their last six matches, but have only lost to Arsenal and Manchester City in their last sixteen matches at home.
Aston Villa failed to hold a 2-0 lead at half-time and drew 2-2 with Chelsea last weekend. Villa will return to Premier League action after the first-leg of their Europa Conference League semi-final with Olympiakos.
