KickOff:

Saturday, October 26, 2024 at 7:30 PM IST

Venue: Villa Park

Form:

Aston Villa (in all competitions): W-W-D-W-D

Bournemouth (in all competitions): W-L-W-L-L

Players To Watch Out For:

Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa)

Ollie Watkins is the player to watch out for Aston Villa in this game. The striker has played 11 games so far this season, scoring five goals and providing three assists. He scored 23 goals and provided 13 assists in the 53 games that he played in all competitions last season.

Watkins has a knack for finding the net. His goal-scoring record in the Premier League, although fluctuating, underlines his capability to be a prolific scorer when in form. Over the seasons, Watkins has shown an ability to improve year on year. His goal and assist numbers might fluctuate, but there’s a persistent upward trend in his overall contribution to his team’s performance.

Antoine Semenyo (AFC Bournemouth)

Antoine Semenyo has scored three goals and provided one assist in the nine games that he has played so far this season. He scored eight goals and provided two assists in the 36 games that he played in all competitions last season.

One of Semenyo’s standout attributes is his devastating pace, which combined with his physical strength, makes him particularly effective in beating defenders off the dribble. His physicality allows him to shrug off opponents, while his speed is crucial in exploiting spaces, especially during counter-attacks or in transitions.
