Second from the bottom Aston Villa take on second from the top Manchester City today. The two sides clash at Villa Park in the final Premier League game on Saturday.
Aston Villa have one win this season and are struggling to get their players on the same page. They have lost all other games and are in desperate need of points.
Manchester City have dropped points once and are looking to make a big impression again. Erling Haaland has been leading the way and should be a good pick.
