Liverpool vs Aston Villa are set to face off in the 11th round of the English championship. This intriguing match features two formidable teams from the EPL. Just a week ago, it would have been a clash between two Champions League leaders. However, a few days ago, the situation changed.
Aston Villa experienced a surprising defeat to Brugge in the fourth round of the European Cup, ending with a score of 0:1. Indeed, the referee granted a highly disputed penalty following an alleged error by an English defender. If Villa had scored a few goals, this penalty would not have intimidated them. However, the Lions lacked bite in this meeting.
The demanding schedule influences Aston Villa’s form. Ultimately, it is not considered a top club despite its frequent successes, ability to challenge the leaders, and strong performance in tournaments. However, the frequent games every three or four days have taken a toll on Emery’s squad. They are currently experiencing a brief losing streak, having previously lost to Crystal Palace (1:2) in the League Cup and to Tottenham in the EPL (1:4).
Before these setbacks, Villa frequently ended up in draws. Its standing in the Premier League is not significantly elevated – sixth place. Nonetheless, the top teams have a slight margin over the club. Liverpool, in contrast, is currently at the top of the table. He recently ended in a draw against one of the primary competitors in the battle for first place – Arsenal. The winner was not disclosed in a challenging match that ended in a draw (2:2). Slot’s team benefited from the recent loss of Man City, allowing them to reclaim the top position.
Liverpool appears well-prepared for a challenging schedule ahead. The team boasts an extensive roster and a robust bench strength. The Reds continue to manage various tournaments effectively and find success in each of them. In the current Champions League, Liverpool is the sole team to have triumphed in all four rounds.
