Wolves vs Aston Villa Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

The Wanderers are set to face the Villans in Premier League Gameweek 24.
Struggling Wolves are set for a Premier League 2024-25 outing against Aston Villa at home on February 1. Wolverhampton Wanderers are currently in the relegation zone and are in desperate need of a win. Aston Villa are in eighth spot after winning 10 matches in 23 EPL games.
Wolves will be low on confidence as they faced a close defeat against Arsenal in their last league game. Wolverhampton Wanderers are having one of their worst seasons and are hoping for a comeback. The league match against Aston Villa is going to be a tough contest for the home side.
Aston Villa will have an advantage over the Wolves because of their better form. The Villans defeated Celtic in their last game which was a UCL clash. The visitors will try their level best to secure three points. Villa might jump up a spot or two but in the end, it will depend on the goal difference.
Kick-off:
Saturday, February 1, 11:00 PM IST
Location: Molineux Stadium, Wolverhampton, England
Form:
Wolves: L-W-L-L-L
Aston Villa: W-D-L-D-W
Players to Watch
Matheus Cunha (Wolves)
The Brazil forward has been able to record 10 goals in 22 Premier League matches. Matheus Cunha can be lethal for opponents when it comes to attack. He also helps his teammates by providing assists. Wolves will be keen on adding him to their starting XI as it will increase their odds of at least securing a draw against Aston Villa.
Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa)
The English football player has been a key asset to the Villans. Having a total of 16 goal contributions for Villa in 23 league games tells a lot of things about the forward. Ollie Watkins is a team player as he can score goals and also provide his teammates with assists. Aston Villa will rely on Watkins for their coming league match, with Jhon Durán set for a move away from the club.
