Match Preview
Aston Villa will host AS Roma at Villa Park on Wednesday for a pre-season friendly that promises to be an intriguing encounter. Both teams are coming off mixed results in their recent matches, with Villa recording two wins, two draws, and one loss in their last five games, while Roma has fared slightly better with four wins and one draw. Historically, their head-to-head record shows a clear advantage for Villa, winning their only previous encounter, but the overall trend suggests a lack of goals, with only one match seeing over 2.5 goals and none featuring both teams scoring. One key angle to consider is Villa's defensive solidity, which has been evident in their recent outings. With odds of 1.53 for both teams to score, it might be wise to look at Villa's ability to keep Roma at bay, especially given their home advantage. The match will serve as a valuable test for both sides as they prepare for the upcoming season, and it will be interesting to see how Villa's defensive tactics hold up against Roma's attacking prowess.
