One of the problems remains the realization of moments – no player has become a consistent scorer or irreplaceable leader. The team’s best snipers in the league have only five goals each. Meanwhile, the positives for the home side are the return to form of Estevan and Liam Delap, as well as the return to form of the team’s main star Cole Palmer, who is once again starting to play a key role in the final third of the pitch.

Unai Emery’s team arrive in London in luxury. Aston Villa have won ten matches in a row in all competitions and are one step away from repeating the club record set at the beginning of the 20th century. In the championship, the “lions” have a series of seven victories, showing a confident, mature and productive game.

The main driving force of the team was Morgan Rodgers, who scored a brace against Manchester United and continues to score goals with incredible regularity. His connection with Ollie Watkins looks like one of the most dangerous in the league. Even with the loss of personnel in defense, Villa remain extremely organized and efficient, especially in matches against top opponents.
