Aston Villa will host Leeds United at home within the 24th round of Championship on upcoming Thursday. The men from Birmingham are in the middle of the tournament table and it’ unlikely, that they will fight to be promoted, however, the Lions look quite decently playing at home. But Leeds are one of the contenders to be promoted to the EPL, plus the team has managed to get 50% of their points in away games.
Not that long ago, the Lions of Birmingham played in the EPL, but now the team is on the 13th position of the Championship, having 31 points in the asset. The place isn’t the most prestigious, but there is only six-point handicap to the sixth place, which allows to enter EPL promotion play-offs, i.e. pretty reachable goal. Thus, there is no doubt, that AV footballers will try their best to get a victory in the forthcoming match.
The Whites are on the fifth place of the Championship tournament table after 22 played rounds, having 38 points in the asset. It’s whole ten points to the desirable second position, which allows to be promoted to the EPL directly, but there’s a whole second half of the season ahead, so it is a little premature to give up already.
Aston Villa has +5 =5 statistics, when playing at home this season, i.e. the team can be named a home team this season, and betting against such teams playing at their home ground is a risky business.
Prediction for the match: Aston Villa to win with 0.0 Asian handicap.
