Brighton & Hove Albion, Recent FormBuilding up confidence within his squad will be a priority for Brighton & Hove Albion supremo Roberto De Zerbi after sustaining a heavy 3-0 away loss to Bournemouth. They achieved 70% possession in that match and had 13 strikes at goal, with 1 hitting the target, up against Bournemouth's tally of 15 efforts at goal, 6 of which were on target.
De Zerbi will be looking to hit the reset button after his team's terrible performances in their last 6 games, having scored only 2 goals, conceded 13, and picked up a meagre 2 points. They have failed to score in 4 of their last 6 games, and they have conceded a goal in 14 of their 16 games at home this season.
Results wise, their recent poor run of form has left them without a win in 6 games.
Aston Villa, Recent FormWith a 2-2 draw in their last match against Chelsea, Aston Villa had to settle for a share of the points. In that game they recorded 28 % of the possession, with 9 attempts on goal, 4 on target. Their opponents found the target on 5 of their 21 shots on goal.
While they have been strong in attack with 13 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 10 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. They've scored in 31 of their 35 games this season.
They have had a strong run of away form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games on the road and picking up 4 wins along the way.
On an individual basis, Ollie Watkins will be looking to cause Brighton & Hove Albion some problems having scored 6 goals in Aston Villa's last 6 away games in the league.
Brighton & Hove Albion will be looking to forget their last league encounter with Aston Villa, when a slew of goals ended in a heavy 6-1 defeat.
The Villans will be confident of finding the net in this one against Brighton, with an impressive scoring record of at least 1 goal in their previous 5 encounters between the two sides. The Seagulls have struggled for goals when Aston Villa comes to visit The AMEX Stadium, having scored just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings. Playing at home, Brighton have failed to score in 2 of their last 3 league games against Aston Villa. In the previous 5 matches between these sides, Aston Villa have shown they know their way around The Seagulls defence having scored 14 times against them in those 5 matches.
Brighton will be determined to get something from this game having lost the last 5 times they've met Aston Villa in the league and not won this fixture for 6 games in a row.
Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Pervis Estupiñán (Calf), Evan Ferguson (Knock), Billy Gilmour (Knee), Jack Hinshelwood (Foot), Tariq Lamptey (Muscle), Solly March (Knee), James Milner (Thigh) and Kaoru Mitoma (Back) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With both Emiliano Buendía (Cruciate ligament) and Tyrone Mings (Cruciate ligament) being out for the rest of the season and Kortney Hause (Knee), Boubacar Kamara (Knee), Álex Moreno (Calf), Jacob Ramsey (Foot) and Nicolò Zaniolo (Muscle) all unavailable in the shorter term, Aston Villa manager Unai Emery will be hoping none of his other players pick up a knock going into this clash.
