Aston Villa To Continue Their 100% Record When They Face Leeds United on Friday

The opening fixture for this matchday will see Aston Villa hoping to continue their 100% win rate when they host Leeds United at Villa Park on Friday 23rd October.




Aston Villa sit 2nd in the table following 4 victories as they started this season a with 1-0 victory over Sheffield United before beating Fulham 3-0 and then went ahead to humiliate Liverpool with a 7-2 thrashing before edging Leicester 1-0 last weekend.
Aston Villa scored 12 goals already this season, they also boast the divisions best defensive record.


Leeds United began their top-flight campaign as the newly promoted side with a thrilling 4-3 defeat to Liverpool before beating Fulham 4-3 on matchday 2. They also secured a back-to-back wins by beating Sheffield United 1-0 and they held Manchester City to a 1-1 draw a week later.


Leeds United come into this game on the back of a 1-0 defeat against Wolverhampton Wanderers but Leeds United have enjoyed a decent return to top-flight action.


Trends shows that these two sides have mainly competed against each other in the championship in recent years with Leeds United only losing 1 of their last 6 encounters with Aston Villa.
Aston Villa has two long-term absentees with the likes of Tom Heaton and Wesley Moraes, while Kortney Hause and Keinan Davis are a doubt.


Leeds United's Kelvin Philip looks set to be sidelined for up to six weeks. Liam Cooper could also miss out after picking up a minor injury last week.


PREDICTION: LEEDS COULD END ASTON VILLA'S 100% WIN RATE. I FANCY OVER 2.5 MATCH GOALS.
