The resurgence under new manager Unai Emery continues for Aston Villa, who beat Southampton 1:0 away last match to secure their fifth Premier League win under him. Only Arsenal managed to score more points in the last seven stages. At the same time, success today will help Birmingham bypass Chelsea and Liverpool and get into the top ten. However, it is not yet clear what effect the sale of experienced striker Danny Ings will have, especially since the opponent is not easy today. After 20 rounds the Lions have eight victories and four draws, which corresponds to 28 points and 11th position. Ding, Steer, McGinney and Diego Carlos, who has an Achilles injury, will not be able to play.
If Villa shares rise, then Leicester falls off the cliff, as no team has lost more Premier League games or scored fewer points since the restart of the World Cup in Qatar ahead of this round. The victory over Walsall (1:0) reassured the fans a little, but the loss of Jamie Vardy can seriously complicate the fight for survival. In addition, the Foxes have only failed to score in one of their last 16 away games, while rarely avoiding defeat. Over 20 rounds the Blues have won five victories and three draws, which corresponds to 18 points and 14th position in the standings. In addition to Vardy, Soumare, Pereira, Justin, Evans and Bertrand, who has a knee injury, will not be able to play.
