Liverpool vs Aston Villa prediction and betting tips on November 9, 2024
Game Prediction
On November 9, 2024, Liverpool will face Aston Villa in the 11th round of the English Premier League. Unai Emery will draw on his wealth of experience to challenge Arne Slot, who only arrived in the Premier League this summer.
Prediction for Liverpool vs Aston Villa
Both teams had strong performances last season, finishing close to each other in the Premier League standings. Liverpool rejoined the top three and also won the League Cup, while Villa, despite the additional strain of competing in the Europa Conference League, managed to edge out Tottenham for fourth place.
Emery successfully led his team to the Champions League, where the debutants have been making waves, with victories over Young Boys, Bologna, and even Bayern Munich. However, they fell to a 0-1 loss against Club Brugge. Domestically, Villa has had a solid record but suffered a League Cup exit to Crystal Palace and dropped points against Ipswich and Bournemouth in draws. Their recent 1-4 loss to Tottenham was a shocker.
Arne Slot, Liverpool’s new manager, has enjoyed an impressive start. Apart from a loss to Nottingham Forest, only Arsenal has managed to take points from Liverpool, with a 2-2 draw. Liverpool followed that up with wins over Brighton in the league and Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League.
The Reds have a strong offensive record, averaging nearly two goals per game. Despite Alisson’s injury, they concede just over 0.5 goals per match. Villa’s attack is also sharp, but Emi Martinez, the recent Yashin Trophy winner, has been conceding around 1.2 goals per game.
