For Aston Villa, a European spot in 2024/25 is crucial, and they can’t afford to drop points. They’ll be looking to bounce back big time in this one. Even on the road, Villa will be hoping to get all three, but it won’t be easy

Brentford 2-2 Aston Villa
I think it’ll be a draw. Both teams have the attacking talent to score but are also leaky at times, so 2-2 seems like a likely result.
