Man City vs Aston Villa prediction and odds ahead of Premier League clash

Manchester City will be looking to continue putting pressure on the Premier League title race after Arsenal failed to win again at the weekend. The Gunners have now picked up just two wins in their last five matches including a draw at home to Brentford thanks to Ivan Toney's controversial equaliser but now City need to capitalise on that when they welcome Aston Villa to the Etihad Stadium.

Pep Guardiola's side are the favourites to win at 2/7 with Betfred and cut Arsenal's lead to just three points while Villa are longshots at 10/1 to win and a draw is 9/2. City go into this tie winning their last 12 meetings at home against the Villains - including last season's dramatic 3-2 win on the last day of the season to secure the Premier League title.

Villa, meanwhile, will be looking to maintain their impressive away form under new boss Unai Emery having won all three of their away matches in the league under the former Arsenal head coach.

Tips

  • Erling Haaland to score two or more goals - 7/4

  • Man City to win and both teams to score - 13/8
