Everton vs Aston Villa Match Preview

For the 23rd game of the English Premier League, Everton welcomes Aston Villa in Goodison Park.

Everton continue to worry, last week they lost to Norwich 2-1 away from home. For another match their image was bad, conceded 2 goals from the first twenty minutes and all they managed was at 60΄ just to reduce the score.

With this defeat Everton remained at 19 points and are in 16th place in the standings, just 5 points above the relegation zone. This negative result in combination with just one victory in the last 13 matches caused firing the coach Rafa Benitez and now they will continue with the service coach Duncan Ferguson, once a great glory of the team.

Aston Villa come from a 2-2 draw at home against Manchester United. They paid for their defensive mistakes and found themselves back in the score with 2 goals they conceded in 6΄ and 67΄, however they reacted ideally as they managed to score 2 goals in a few minutes equalizing the match and avoiding defeat.

With this score Aston Villa has reached 23 and are in 13th place in the Premier League, plus 9 from the last three and minus 12 from the first six that give a European ticket.

Everton are now in a transition period after the change in their technical leadership and are expected to force thmeselves into the match with more intensity and mood. Aston Villa for their part come from a great result in the way they achieved it and go to the confrontation with the best psychology. I think we will see a match with many chances, my choice is Over 2.5 goals at odds of 2.05.
