Aston Villa Host Unbeaten Manchester City

Aston Villa host Manchester City at Villa Park in a Premier League clash that pits Villa’s strong home form against City’s nine-match unbeaten run. Pep Guardiola said no sidelined Manchester City players will return in time and urged his side to be more consistent, while praising Unai Emery’s well‑organised Villa. Aston Villa have reported concerns over the recoveries of Nico Gonzalez and Abdukodir Khusanov, which may affect their selection. Manchester City remain slight favourites in the betting markets. Sky Sports is scheduled to provide live coverage of the fixture.
