### Liverpool Aiming to Extend Lead to 10 Points Against Aston Villa in Rescheduled Premier League Fixture
Liverpool have an opportunity to strengthen their position at the top of the Premier League table by opening up a 10-point gap when they face Aston Villa on Wednesday evening.
Originally scheduled for March 15, this match was postponed due to Liverpool’s involvement in the Carabao Cup final. Aston Villa had hoped for another delay, citing a packed fixture list for both teams, with five matches in just over two weeks. However, the Premier League dismissed their request, keeping the rescheduled date intact.
As the two sides prepare to clash at Villa Park, here’s an in-depth look at their recent performances, injury updates, and key match details, along with betting odds available on the Jojobet official website.
### Form Guide – Last Six Premier League Matches
#### **Aston Villa**: 2 Wins, 3 Draws, 1 Loss | Goals Scored: 7 | Goals Conceded: 7 | Points: 9
Villa have struggled to secure victories lately, with their last Premier League win coming at Everton’s Goodison Park in mid-January. Their last two home fixtures resulted in frustrating draws against West Ham and Ipswich.
Despite this downturn in form, Unai Emery’s side remains a strong contender for European qualification. Currently trailing fourth-placed Manchester City by six points, Villa will be eager to get back to winning ways to bolster their chances of securing a Champions League or Europa League spot.
#### **Liverpool**: 4 Wins, 2 Draws, 0 Losses | Goals Scored: 13 | Goals Conceded: 5 | Points: 14
While Liverpool have endured three defeats across all competitions since the start of the year, their Premier League form remains solid. They have not suffered a league loss since an unexpected home defeat to Nottingham Forest back in September.
The Reds have dropped six points in 2024 due to draws against Nottingham Forest, Manchester United, and Everton. Their goalless Merseyside derby against Everton was particularly frustrating, with contentious refereeing decisions playing a role.
Apart from their recent 0-0 draw at the City Ground, Liverpool have netted at least twice in every league match since their narrow 1-0 victory over Crystal Palace in early October, underscoring their attacking strength.
### Where to Watch Aston Villa vs. Liverpool
UK viewers can catch the game live on TNT Sports, with kickoff scheduled for 7:30 PM on Wednesday.
### Team News
Aston Villa will be without six key players: Boubacar Kamara, Amadou Onana, Ezri Konsa, Matty Cash, Pau Torres, and Ross Barkley are all ruled out. Additionally, Leon Bailey remains doubtful and will undergo a late fitness test.
Liverpool, on the other hand, will miss Joe Gomez, Tyler Morton, and Cody Gakpo due to injuries. However, Curtis Jones is available again after serving a one-match suspension during Liverpool’s 2-0 win over Wolves on Sunday.
### Match Prediction
Liverpool must significantly improve their performance at Villa Park compared to their recent struggles against Midlands clubs. Their victory over Wolves last weekend helped ease concerns after setbacks against Plymouth Argyle and Everton.
Villa, however, have been formidable at home, remaining unbeaten in all competitions at Villa Park since their Carabao Cup loss to Crystal Palace last October.
Nevertheless, Liverpool’s attacking force, featuring Mohamed Salah, Diogo Jota, and Luis Díaz, possesses the firepower needed to break through even the toughest defensive setups. Expecting a competitive contest, we predict a 2-1 away win for Liverpool.
