Saturday, April 13, starting at 15:00, Aston Villa will meet Bristol City in the 42nd round of the world’s second-highest league, Championship.
The host team is going through an impressive 7 consecutive wins, leading to a 5th place with a total of 66 points. Also noteworthy is the offensive force of Aston Villa who scored at least 2 goals in 12 of the last 13 games played in the field championship. In addition, the young striker T. Abraham seems to have found his way to the goal in the last period, enhancing in two of the last three rounds and reached the number 23 peak this season.
After an impressive 2019 start with 9 consecutive victories, Bristol City followed a fall of just one point in four rounds, and now Lee Johnson’s band seems to have re-entered the line of positive results. The guests come after 5 stages without defeat and we notice the “outside” victories with Sheffield Wed. and Middlesborough, as well as the “home” of the last round with West Brom. So, with a total of 65 points, Bristol City is in the 6th place, the last one in the playoffs and is only a point away from the opponent today, but also has a less played match.
For any of the teams, a victory would be a huge step towards the playoffs, but first of all, I think both coaches want not to lose to stay with high chances of ranking in the top 6. Noteworthy is also the offensive force of both teams and we should normally see gaps.
