Odds are subject to change.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Aston Villa vs Manchester City betting preview<\/h2>\n<p>While it would be foolish to write Manchester City off, the circumstances of this game appear to give Aston Villa a great chance of toppling the champions.<\/p>\n<p>For a start, Villa must feel unbeatable at home right now. They\u2019ve won 13 on the spin in the league at Villa Park and they\u2019ve scored a remarkable 37 goals in those contests \u2013 that\u2019s more than three per game.<\/p>\n<p>The arrival of City clearly has the potential to puncture such a run but chinks have been showing in the Treble winners\u2019 armour of late.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019ve failed to win in their last three Premier League games \u2013 their worst such run in six years \u2013 with goals aplenty being conceded. Throw in the Champions League comeback victory over Leipzig and City have let in 10 goals in their last four matches. Go back further and its\u2019s just two clean sheets in 12 in all competitions.<\/p>\n<p>They will also be without midfield general Rodri for this one due to suspension which only weakens them further defensively. When the Spaniard was banned earlier this season, City lost all three games without him.<\/p>\n<p>For all City\u2019s squad strength, they don\u2019t have a replacement for Rodri with the same quality and midfield is an area where Villa have excelled this season with Douglas Luiz and John McGinn both outstanding.<\/p>\n<p>In short, City look worth opposing in some shape or form and the double-chance market \u2013 which also rewards if the game is drawn \u2013 looks the route to do that by.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/the-sun-bet-on-aston-villa-vs-man-city.jpg\"><\/p>\n<h2>Aston Villa vs Manchester City key stats<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Aston Villa have won their last 13 Premier League home games.<\/li>\n<li>Manchester City have not won any of their last three league matches \u2013 the last time that happened was back in 2017.<\/li>\n<li>These are the two top-scoring teams in this season\u2019s Premier League \u2013 City lead the way with 36, while Villa have 33.<\/li>\n<li>Both teams to score has landed in seven of the last eight meetings of these sides, including the last five.<\/li>\n<li>Man City\u2019s Rodri and Jack Grealish are both suspended for this match; Villa have Boubacar Kamara back from a ban.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Aston Villa vs Manchester City best bets<\/h2>\n<p>Find our best bets for the Aston Villa vs Manchester City game below.

Odds in the bettings tips are subject to change.<\/p>\n<h3>Villa\/Draw double chance (Spreadex)<\/h3>\n<p>Villa\u2019s home record is outstanding and if there\u2019s ever a good time to play City, this is it.<\/p>\n<p>The visitors haven\u2019t won any of their last three league games \u2013 the last time that happened was six years ago \u2013 while they must also play without midfield lynchpin Rodri, who is suspended.<br \/>When he served a three-game ban earlier this season, City lost all three matches.<\/p>\n<p>A home win will tempt some in the circumstances but we\u2019ll opt for the safety net of the double-chance market.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u26bd Back Villa\/Draw double chance at 23\/20 at Spreadex \u26bd<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h3>Douglas Luiz 1+ shot on target (bet365)<\/h3>\n<p>Luiz has been in fine form in front of goal this season and being on penalties helps on that front.<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s landed this bet in six of his last eight Premier League games at Villa Park and looks a good price to add to that tally.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, City are strong defensively but Luiz will be operating in an area where Rodri will be missed and should get a chance or two to get a shot off.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u26bd Back Luiz 1+ shot on target at 2\/1 at bet365 \u26bd<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h3>Manuel Akanji to be carded (Sky Bet)<\/h3>\n<p>So used to winning, City are team who can get a bit ratty when things don\u2019t their way and you only have to look at their card count for evidence of that.<\/p>\n<p>They had four booked when held by Spurs at the weekend and three in the 4-4 draw at Chelsea. Defeats at Arsenal and Wolves brought three and four respectively.<\/p>\n<p>With Villa having the potential to cause more disruption to their title defence, Akanji looks worth chancing at a tasty price.<\/p>\n<p>The Swiss defender has been carded in four of 16 starts this season and is still getting used to a new \u2018hybrid\u2019 position of stepping into midfield.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u26bd Back Akanji to be shown a card at 9\/2 at Sky Bet \u26bd<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>\ud83d\udcfa\u00a0How to watch Aston Villa vs Manchester City<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Location<\/strong>: Villa Park, Birmingham<\/li>\n<li><strong>Time<\/strong>: 20:15 GMT on Wednesday, December 6<\/li>\n<li><strong>Where to watch<\/strong>: screened live in the UK on Amazon Prime Video<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Remember to gamble responsibly<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>A responsible gambler is someone who:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Establishes time and monetary limits before playing<\/li>\n<li>Only gambles with money they can afford to lose<\/li>\n<li>Never chase their losses<\/li>\n<li>Doesn\u2019t gamble if they\u2019re upset, angry, or depressed<\/li>\n<li>Gamcare \u2013\u00a0www.gamcare.org.uk<\/li>\n<li>Gamble Aware \u2013\u00a0www.begambleaware.org<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Find our detailed guide on responsible gambling practices here.<\/p>\n<p>For help with a gambling problem, call the National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133 or go to\u00a0www.gamstop.co.uk\u00a0to be excluded from all UK-regulated gambling websites.<\/p>\n<h2>Most read in Betting<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/sheff-utd-vs-liverpool-betting-preview-thesun.jpg\"><\/p>\n<h3>Sheffield United vs Liverpool betting preview: odds and predictions<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/thesun-virgin-games-casino-rev.jpg\"><\/p>\n<h3>Virgin Games review: Features, casino games, bonuses, and more<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/thesun-best-casino-welcome-bonus.jpg\"><\/p>\n<h3>All the best UK casino welcome bonuses for new players revealed<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/thesun-best-no-deposit-bonuses.jpg\"><\/p>\n<h3>Check out all the best no deposit bonus sites and exactly how they work<\/h3>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/betting\/24953163\/aston-villa-vs-man-city-2023-betting-preview\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HAVING won their last 13 home Premier League games, Aston Villa look well placed to add to champions Manchester City\u2019s recent poor run.
