Brentford is coming into this match playing in awful form in their recent matches. They have lost their last 2 straight as well as 4 of their last 5 matches. Their attack has not been good in those matches either as they have gone scoreless in 3 of their last 5. They have been much better when playing at home but their last win there was against newly promoted Luton Town while the injuires have been starting to pile up for them now in their last 2 matches. They will be without a key attacker in this match and they are going up against an Aston Villa side that has been in great form recently. Aston Villa has won 2 of their last 3 as well as 6 of their last 8 matches with no losses in that span. Their defense has been very good recently as well as they have allowed just 1 goal in their last 3 matches. They are coming off of a 1-1 draw in their last match which was in Europa Conference League on Thursday but it was also a match that they rested a lot of their starters in. Aston Villa is currently sitting in 3rd place in the Premier League table and they are going to be pushing for all 3 points here considering how they rested players in their Conference League match. Aston Villa has a lot more quality on their side with the injuries piling up for Brentford now. Aston Villa will win this match and collect all 3 points here.
