Aston Villa vs Liverpool prediction: How will Premier League fixture play out?

Aston Villa host Liverpool in the Premier League

Aston Villa will hope to strike a further blow to Liverpool’s Premier League title hopes as they host Jurgen Klopp’s side.

The hosts still have four league games left to play after postponements earlier in the season, and would climb into the top half of the table with a win.

A draw with Tottenham, coupled with Manchester City’s comfortable win over Newcastle, means Liverpool now trail their title rivals by three points, and know they cannot afford to lose yet more ground in midweek action.

A Mohamed Salah penalty settled a tight reverse fixture at Anfield in December.
