Both Teams scoring has become a regular occurrence in this fixture in recent times, with four of the last five clashes between them seeing goals from both teams. The two sides are also currently in good goalscoring form, with Aston Villa getting contributors from all over the pitch while Crystal Palace have benefited from a striker in form, with Odsonne Édouard scoring three of their five goals so far this campaign.
Aston Villa have won their last nine home games in a row in all competitions, they also boast an impressive home record against their opponent, winning four of their last five home meetings with Crystal Palace.
Aston Villa continue to impress under the command of Unai Emery, who is on his second stint in the Premier league. They have benefited from an array of goal contributors from everywhere on the pitch, with defender Matty Cash chipping in two goals. They have won two and also lost two of their four games so far in league (W2, D0, L2), leaving them with six points and a win here is very much needed to move them up from their current 10th position in the Premier league table.
