Aston Villa & Steven Gerrard entertain BHA, in Saturday's league fixture. Villa (16th) & BHA (7th) are only 7 points adrift of each other. Albion's away form is top notch so far this season, won 2, drawn 3 & lost 0. Villa's home form is not too bad either. Won 2 (Newcastle & Everton). Drawn with Brentford & Lost against Wolves & West Ham.
The Seagulls are winless (all competitions) in their last 7 matches. Villa have lost their past 5 matches. So what gives on Saturday?
Albion's continued problem is a lack of goals. Currently 12th in the league. Indeed, Villa have scored 2 more. Defence - as in the past 4 seasons is our stronger aspect. 4th best in the league, whilst Villa have conceded 8 more than us.
Head to head we have met 27 times, with Villa very much having the upper hand. Albion win's 5, draws 9 & 13 defeats. Last season we did win 2-1 at Villa Park with Welbeck & March finding the net. That win was the first victory at Villa Park in 110 years. Hopefully we won't have to wait that long for the next win!
