Match Facts
Aston Villa beat Wolves 2-0 in their last league meeting in March last season – only in their first two such encounters in 2003-04 have they won consecutive Premier League games against them.
Wolves have only lost one of their last five away league games against Aston Villa (D2 L2), though it was in this exact fixture last season (0-2).
Between March and Christmas 2023, Aston Villa conceded just eight goals in 16 Premier League home games (0.5 per game), and never more than once in a match in that time. Since then, they’ve conceded 26 goals in 12 games at Villa Park (2.2 per game), conceding at least twice in 10 of those (including each of the last four).
Wolves have won just one of their last 14 Premier League games (D3 L10) and are winless in seven (D1 L6) since a 2-1 win over Luton in April. It’s their longest run without a victory since a run of 12 between April and August 2022.
Aston Villa have won three of their four Premier League games this season, losing the other against Arsenal. Only in 1998-99, 2009-10 and 2020-21 have they won as many as four of their first five in a single campaign in the competition.
Since the start of March, Wolves have lost more games than any other Premier League side (11). They’ve also won fewer games (2) and earned fewer points (9) than any other ever present side in that time.
Wolves have conceded a league-high three Premier League goals from outside the box this season, including both strikes in their 2-1 defeat to Newcastle last time out.
In the Premier League last season, only Bournemouth (65%) and Tottenham (65%) scored a higher share of their goals in the second half of games than Wolves (64% - 32/50). All four of Wolves’ strikes so far this season have come before half-time.
Ollie Watkins has been involved in seven goals in his last six Premier League home games for Aston Villa, scoring four and assisting three. Overall, he has 48 goal involvements at Villa Park (33 goals, 15 assists), second only to Gabriel Agbonlahor in the competition (49).
Jhon Durán has scored the winning goal in all three of Aston Villa’s Premier League victories this season, with all three coming as a substitute. No player has scored four winning goals from the bench in a single campaign in Premier League history.
