Aston Villa vs Leeds United: prediction for the English Premier League match

Last Sunday, Aston Villa conceded two late goals to Stevenage and got knocked out of the FA Cup (1:2). A defeat to the residents of Football League Two was a hard blow for the Lions' pride and confidence, and the team will be clearly looking for redemption in the upcoming Premier League game against Leeds United. 

Aston Villa won the last four games against Leeds, three of them with a clean sheet. So far, they have done quite well under the leadership of Unai Emeri. In the previous home game, they scored an early goal against Wolverhampton and got one point from a draw (1:1). 

McGinn and Diego Carlos have been ruled out of this fixture. 

Leeds United needed two late goals to level against Cardiff City in the FA Cup game (2:2) last Sunday. The match will be replayed on Wednesday. The Whites conceded at least two goals in four of their last five games. 

Jesse Marsch's men are two opoints clear of the danger zone, but they have a game in hand. Marsch hopes his charges will once again deliver a good performance at Villa Park - the Peacocks lost only one of the last six Premier League games in Birmingham. After 17 matches, Leeds sit in 14th place with 17 points from four wins and five draws.

Bamford, Sinisterra, Gray and Dallas are sidelined through injuries.
