Our prediction for this Premier League match:
Aston Villa
Match Time & Date:
04/01/2023
12:00 PM
Prediction: 2-1
Wolves
Buoyed by a 2-0 win over Tottenham, Aston Villa will look to kick off 2023 in style when they host Wolverhampton to their Villa Park on Wednesday evening. The Villans proved their worth in the triumph over Spurs, and it is no wonder the odds for home win have been dropping. Jacob Ramsey and Diego Carlos remain in the treatment room, while Poland right-back Matty Cash is widely expected to return to the starting line-up.
Meanwhile, the Wolves failed to impress in a 1-0 loss to Manchester United, and given their poor away record in the 2022/2023 season (1-2-5), we predict that the hosts are going to pick up all three points from the match. All Neto, Kalajdzic, and Chiquinho are out of contention with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the away team ahead of Matchday 19.
Highlighted Player (Philippe Coutinho):
Philippe Coutinho is a Brazilian football player born on 12th of June 1992 in Rio de Janeiro. Coutinho started his football career for Vasco da Gama where he played in the youth as well. By the age of 16 Internazionale signed Coutinho but let him play in Brazil until he was 18 years old.
