Manchester City will be looking to keep their title challenge on track when they travel to Villa Park to face Aston Villa in the English Premier League on Sunday.
League leaders City are 4/6 (1.67) with All You Bet to beat the home side this weekend with Aston Villa rated as 4/1 (5.00) chances with the same firm, who make the draw a 27/10 (3.70) shot.
City cruised to a resounding 3-0 victory over Fulham at the Etihad Stadium last weekend and, although Villa’s recent results have been disappointing, the Citizens should face a much stiffer test against Alex McLeish’s men.
Roberto Mancini’s side have been imperious at home this season but City’s away form will be of concern to the Italian boss with recent away losses at Chelsea, Sunderland and Everton still fresh in the memory while West Bromich Albion also held City to a 0-0 draw in late December.
Such poor form on the road has led some to question whether the Citizens will be able to hold off the challenge of their city rivals Manchester United and the challenge from London in the shape of Tottenham Hotspur in the race for the title. This will surely offer Villa some encouragement ahead of this weekend’s clash.
Villa have their own problems, though, and, since shocking Chelsea 3-1 at Stamford Bridge back on December 31st, they have recorded just one win in five Premier League fixtures.
Indeed, in four of those five matches, Villa have conceded two goals and City’s deadly strike partnership of Sergio Aguero and Edin Dzeko will be licking their lips at the prospect of being let loose on the hosts’ shaky defence.
With that in mind, City to win by two or more goals is well worth a wager with AllYouBet.com offering 33/20 (2.65) on such an eventuality while City to secure a 3-1 triumph at odds of 11/1 (12.00) with All You Bet should also be snapped up.
