Match Preview
It has been a reliable start to the 2024-25 season for Unai Emery’s Aston Villa, as they have won three of their four Premier League outings. Momentum was also built in midweek after claiming a 3-0 success at Young Boys on their return to the European Cup.
It has been a contrasting start to the campaign for Gary O’Neil and his Wolves side. The team from the Black Country sit in the bottom three places after failing to win in their opening four matches, and they were last in action when throwing away a one-goal advantage against Newcastle last Sunday.

Villa secured a comfortable 2-0 win in this exact fixture last term, but they have failed to win consecutive matches against their Midlands rivals since the 2003-04 season. In fact, Wolves have suffered just one defeat in their last five league visits to Villa Park, claiming eight points from their matches at Villa across that period.
Villa’s defensive record since the turn of the year is a concern. Emery’s side have allowed 26 goals in their last 12 matches at Villa Park, averaging 2.2 goals per game against. However, the recent form of Wolves is a major concern, as they have won just once in their last 14 league matches, and they have gone seven without a victory in the Premier League.
Aston Villa vs. Wolves Picks
There will be huge stakes at Villa Park this weekend, but the fact that the hosts were in midweek Champions League action could mean that there is value in the market. Wolves boast a healthy record on the road against their rivals, meaning that the prospect of a draw could be an interesting prospect.
