Premier League
Saturday’s game will be the ninth time the two sides have met in the Premier League. Aston Villa currently have the upper hand in this fixture, having won four times and kept two clean sheets. The Bees have only won once, while the other three games ended in a draw. There has been plenty of entertainment, with an average of 3.88 goals per game.
Brentford team overview
Brentford avoided relegation for the fourth consecutive season last year following their 10th-place finish, and undoubtedly entered the new campaign with hopes of improvement.
Sadly, there were no signs of progress last weekend at the City Ground, where they lost 3-1 to Nottingham Forest in their first game of the 2025–26 campaign.
The departure of key figures such as Christian Nørgaard, Bryan Mbeumo and Thomas Frank undoubtedly influenced last weekend's outcome, but the Bees can take solace in the fact that they have won two of their last three home matches.
Vitaly Janelt and Gustavo Nunes will be unavailable this weekend due to heel and thigh injuries respectively, while Yoane Wissa is doubtful.

Aston Villa team overview
Aston Villa didn’t end last season the way they would have liked. The Villans needed to beat Manchester United in their final game to secure a top-five finish, but lost 2–0 and failed to qualify for Europe's most prestigious tournament as a result.
Unai Emery’s team also lost 3:0 to Crystal Palace in the FA Cup semi-finals and were knocked out of the Champions League in the quarter-finals by PSG.
Villa fans expect a response from their team this season, but Matchday 1 didn’t bring many smiles to their faces. Watkins and co. registered just three shots on goal in what was a goalless draw against Newcastle United last weekend.
Ezri Konsa was sent off 60 minutes into the game and will miss Saturday’s match, but the visitors have no injury concerns.

Prediction
Brentford may be the underdogs, but the Bees shouldn't be underestimated at the Gtech Community Stadium, where they have lost just one of their last four matches. They face an Aston Villa side that tends to struggle away from home. Villa have lost three of their last four competitive away games, so a 1-1 draw is the most likely outcome.
Three reasons we expect both teams to score in this game
- There were goals at both ends in four of the last five league meetings between Brentford and Villa.
- Aston Villa kept a clean sheet in just two of their last six competitive away games.
- Both teams scored in five of the last six games of Brentford.
