Aston Villa’s form has deserted them over recent weeks, with Sunday’s 3-0 loss at Chelsea making it eight matches without a win for Unai Emery’s side across all competitions.

Bet on Aston Villa vs Brentford Over 3 Goals (-107)

There has been just one clean sheet in six Premier League meetings between Aston Villa and Brentford to date, while Villa are shipping plenty of goals this season and the Bees have scored freely.

Both sides should find the back of the net and we should see at least three goals or more between two sides who are scoring goals for fun.

The Bees’ last away victory in the league came at Bournemouth in May, but while they may be struggling for points on the road, they will be confident of getting on the scoresheet this midweek.
