West Ham 3/2 to beat Aston Villa in Sunday’s Premier League battle

Competition: Premier League

Market: West Ham win

Odds: 3/2 @ 888sport

Looking to extend on what has been a stellar purple patch this weekend, West Ham will make the trip to Aston Villa on Sunday afternoon.

Starting with the hosts, showing some worrying issues on either side of October’s international break, Aston Villa are in the midst of what has been a downbeat run of form. In their opening nine Premier League matchups so far this season, they have recorded three wins, one draw and five defeats, scoring 13 and conceding 15 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 10 from a possible 27, they open this weekend’s fixtures sat 13th in the table and just a single point adrift of breaking into the top-half. However, as for their recent run of results, last seen getting hit with a 3-1 loss away at Arsenal, Aston Villa have lost each of their last three Premier League matchups on the spin. Likewise, losing four of their last five matchups across all formats, it should also be noted that Villa suffered back-to-back defeats against Sunday’s guests last season.

As for the visitors, managing to extend on their EFL Cup adventure in midweek thanks to a stunning victory, West Ham are in the midst of what has been a stellar purple patch. In their opening nine Premier League matchups so far this season, they have recorded five wins, a pair of draws and two defeats, scoring 16 and conceding 10 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 17, they open this weekend’s fixtures sat as high as fourth in the table. As for their recent run of results, last seen knocking defending champions Manchester City out of the EFL Cup, West Ham have won six of their last seven matchups across all formats. Likewise, enjoying a four-match winning run, including extending on their European romp, it should be noted Sunday’s guests have also recorded four clean sheets on the bounce.
