newest Birmingham news about Aston VillaChris Sutton makes a prediction live before Brighton plays at Villa Park.
When Aston Villa hosts Brighton at Villa Park on Saturday at 12:30 p.m., they will be attempting to make it three straight victories in the league.
Unai Emery’s team defeated Chelsea 1-0 at Stamford Bridge after rallying to upset Crystal Palace and earn all three points. With wins against Newcastle, Manchester United, and Bournemouth, the Seagulls have gone undefeated in their previous three league contests
Roberto De Zerbi’s group has had a good season, losing just once in the league and finishing third with 15 points. Chris Sutton, who provided BBC Sport with his predictions before to the game, acknowledged there isn’t much in terms of talent that divides the two teams.
Because of the way Aston Villa plays under Unai Emery, Sutton noted, “This is a difficult one to call.” They’re always so well-behaved.
Villa are at home and have the responsibility to travel to Brighton, but I don’t believe that will happen since Emery is a stickler for maintaining the status quo
Last season, he defeated the Seagulls twice, and I recall their valiant effort that led to their victory at Amex Stadium shortly after he took over as manager. Villa’s strategy this time around will be intriguing to see, but we all know what happens when teams truly go after Brighton, and I don’t see Emery doing that.
“I still believe goals will be scored because I expect Brighton to take advantage of their opportunities, but Villa are a well-balanced team and they should get something here,” said the analyst.
Sutton projects an Aston Villa–Brighton score of 2-2.
