Brentford vs Aston Villa Preview & Prediction
Aston Villa, fresh from winning their Europa Conference League group, face Brentford in the Premier League at the Gtech Community Stadium on Sunday.
Villa secured European progression with a 1-1 draw against Zrinjski Mostar, while Brentford aim to bounce back from a 1-0 loss to Sheffield United. Brentford, facing an injury crisis, suffered their fourth loss in five games during a challenging period.
Villa’s recent successes include wins over title favourites Manchester City and Arsenal, setting a record for 15 consecutive home wins.
Unai Emery’s side are now just one point behind Arsenal and two points behind league leaders Liverpool. Victory against Brentford, coupled with defeats for Arsenal and Liverpool, could see Villa at the top of the table at the end of the week.
Prediction: Brentford 1-2 Aston Villa

Brentford vs Aston Villa Betting Tips
- Aston Villa to win @ 5/4
- Ollie Watkins to score @ 13/8
- Combined Bet Builder Odds @ 3/1
Brentford vs Aston Villa Betting Tip 1: Aston Villa to win @ 5/4
Brentford could benefit from taking advantage of Villa’s tired legs and facing a double suspension setback. However, Emery has a pool of well-rested options for potential changes throughout the team.
Villa’s performance tends to dip when away from Villa Park, and despite Brentford dealing with notable absences in both attacking and defensive positions, we believe in Emery’s reshaped lineup to secure victory by a slim margin.
Brentford vs Aston Villa Betting Tip 2: Ollie Watkins to score @ 13/8
Having been rested for Thursday’s Europa Conference League game, Ollie Watkins comes into this one fresh with seven days rest. He’ll be keen to show his former club what they’re missing.
With eight Premier League goals already to his name this season, backing Watkins to score on Sunday at 13/8 appeals.
