da esoccer bet： The Villa Park faithful will have a first chance to see new recruit Darren Bent in action as the former Sunderland marksman attempts to lift his new employers out of relegation danger.
da heads bet： Manchester City are scoring plenty of goals, but do allow opponents back into games other top sides might have put to bed. City absolutely destroyed Villa in the first meeting between these two clubs, although Mario Balotelli, Villa’s tormenter in chief that day will be absent.
Gerard Houllier’s men have been very poor over the last few months – the late equaliser conceded against Manchester United has had a negative effect on team morale. Houllier will not be able to hide behind a lack of transfer funds as an excuse for Villa’s insipid performances, however I cannot see this being the game to turn their horror trot around.
Prediction: 1-3
