Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest are set to play their second Premier League match of the season this Saturday. In their previous encounter on December 14th, Nottingham Forest won 2-1.
Nottingham Forest, also known as the Tricky Trees, are currently in good form, sitting third in the Premier League table after winning their last three games.
Aston Villa, known as the Villans, are also performing well, aiming for a top-four finish. They are only four points away from a Champions League spot and have won three out of their last five matches.
The match will take place at Villa Park in Birmingham. Aston Villa are considered the favorites to win at home.
Despite Nottingham Forest`s strong season, they have struggled in recent away games, losing three of their last four and conceding 11 goals in those matches. This could be a disadvantage when they face Aston Villa, who have been unbeaten in their last 14 home league games.
It is anticipated to be an exciting game, with expectations that Aston Villa will likely secure a victory on their home ground.
There`s also a prediction for the game to have more than 2.5 goals in total. Nottingham Forest has conceded many goals away from home, and Aston Villa has been scoring consistently at home, including against top teams like Liverpool and Chelsea in recent home games. Over 2.5 goals have occurred in four of Aston Villa`s last five league matches.
