LiontipsWest Ham vs Aston Villa: betting tip (cf 2.04) and bets on the English Premier League match
Command Analysis
Current form
West Ham has improved significantly in terms of performance and results since Nuno Santo was appointed head coach. In six matches played under the Portuguese's leadership, the Londoners scored nine points, suffered only one defeat from Liverpool (0:2). And all this against the background of the fact that before that, in nine rounds in the Premier League, they managed to score only four points. Nevertheless, even with such positive dynamics, it is impossible to leave the relegation zone: with 13 points, West Ham occupies 18th place and is two points behind the saving 17th line. In the last round, an away draw with Brighton (1-1) was recorded.
Disqualifications and injuries

Current form
Aston Villa is having one of the best stretches not only of the season, but also in recent years. The Birmingham team's winning streak, taking into account all tournaments, reached eight matches, and overall they won 14 of the 16 previous meetings. It is not surprising that with such results, the lions have soared to third place in the Premier League and on the eve of the start of round 16 they are just one point behind second-placed Manchester City, and only three points ahead of leading Arsenal. Unai Emery's men beat the Gunners in the last round on their own field (2:1). After that victory, we managed to defeat Basel on the road with the same score in the Europa League, thereby rising to third place.
Disqualifications and injuries
Mings and Barkley are injured and will not play today.
Interesting betting trends
- In three of Aston Villa's last four matches, a draw was recorded in the first half.
- Aston Villa has not lost in five of the previous six away matches in the Premier League.
Approximate composition: Martinez – Cash, Consa, Torres, Digne– Onana, Camara–McGinn, Thielemans, Rogers – Watkins.

8.70Tip and bets
West Ham, under the leadership of Nuno Santo, has noticeably improved, played more boldly and aggressively in attack, but it is unlikely that this will be enough to play on equal terms with Aston Villa today. Birmingham have an advantage in class, and most importantly, they are in excellent playing condition, are on an impressive eight-match winning streak, and are clearly adapting to the playing style of any opponent. We believe that Unai Emery's team will achieve victory again due to their tactical flexibility.
Our betting tip is for Aston Villa to win by a factor of 2.04
Bet on the total
The opponents are on the move now, they have noticeably improved, and they do not have any problems creating and implementing chances. Despite all their successes, Aston Villa had conceded in the previous three matches, which we cannot rule out today. At the same time, the Birmingham team are great offensively, and West Ham's most reliable defense is unlikely to withstand their onslaught.
The second bet is that both will score with a coefficient of 1.67
Betting on corners
In home matches, West Ham are not afraid to go forward with great strength, which leads to a decent number of corners. So, in 9 of the 11 previous games, the Hammers served at least five corners on their field, which we expect from them today.
Betting Tip – West Ham's total number of corners is more than 4.5 with a coefficient of 1.77
