Match Facts
Brentford have lost just one of their last 10 league games against Aston Villa (W4 D5), going down 4-0 at Villa Park in last season’s Premier League.
Aston Villa won all three of their away league games against Brentford in the 20th century but haven’t won any of their five visits so far this century (D1 L4).
Aston Villa are unbeaten in all six of their Premier League games in London under Unai Emery (W4 D2), with their last such defeat coming at Fulham in October 2022 under Steven Gerrard (0-3). They’ve won their last two in the capital, last winning three consecutive top-flight visits in February 1990.
Brentford have lost four of their last five Premier League games (W1), as many as in their previous 18. They’ve lost their last two, last losing three in a row in April last season.
Brentford have lost just four of their 27 Premier League home games since the start of last season (W13 D10), though two of those have come in their last five at the Gtech Community Stadium.
Aston Villa are the only team not to drop a single point from winning positions in the Premier League so far this season, winning all 11 games in which they’ve gone ahead.
None of Aston Villa boss Unai Emery’s 92 Premier League games has finished 0-0, the most games any manager has taken charge of without any finishing goalless. Overall, only Alex Ferguson ever had a longer run without such a result in the competition, going 114 games between May 1999 and May 2002.
Brentford’s Neal Maupay has either scored (2) or assisted (1) a goal in three of his last four Premier League home games. However, against no side has he faced more often without ever scoring in the top-flight than Aston Villa (8 games).
No player has scored more Premier League goals following a ball carry this season than Aston Villa’s Leon Bailey (3). The Jamaican is averaging a goal or assist every 66 minutes in the Premier League this season (5 goals, 4 assists in 591 minutes), with only Callum Wilson having a better record (64 minutes, minimum 500 mins played).
Coming into this weekend’s games, there are five players to have scored a joint league-high three winning goals in the Premier League this season – two of them are Aston Villa players (John McGinn and Ollie Watkins).
