Aston Villa hasn’t been as consistent as last season but occasionally causes trouble and takes points from the giants. However, in matches against more modest teams, Emery’s squad often drops points.
Midweek, the Birmingham side suffered a crushing defeat to Crystal Palace and will be eager to redeem themselves in the eyes of their fans. Cardiff can be considered a favorable opponent, and Villa should confidently advance to the FA Cup quarter-finals.
The Welsh club hasn’t played in the Premier League for a while and has been focused on maintaining its spot in the Championship in recent years. In the current campaign, Cardiff is not impressive and sits just six points above the relegation zone after 34 rounds.
In the FA Cup, they have already overcome two stages, defeating strong sides Sheffield United and Stoke City in succession. The match against Aston Villa will be a real test for them, but it’s too early to write Cardiff off.
