Aston Villa vs Man City: Prediction, kick-off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results, odds today

A decade-long drought and defending champions Manchester City stand between Aston Villa and continuing their 100 per cent home winning record tonight.

Unai Emery's side have smashed 25 goals in six consecutive Premier League victories at Villa Park, on a run which actually extends back to February of last season to include a further seven wins.

City head to the west Midlands on Wednesday night having been held to three league draws in a row, the latest coming in controversial circumstances at home to Tottenham.

Aston Villa vs Man City is scheduled for a 8.15pm GMT kick-off tonight, Wednesday, December 6, 2023.
