Our Aston Villa vs West Ham United Prediction Sees Villans See Off Struggling Hammers

Aston Villa and West Ham United go head-to-head at Villa Park this Friday in an all-Premier League FA Cup tie. Unai Emery’s men do not lose many in front of their own fans, and the home team are fancied to win this cup fixture.

FA Cup Betting Picks:

Aston Villa to Win -1 – 2.12

Aston Villa to Win to Nil – 3.15

Bet on Aston Villa vs West Ham

Will Villa Extend Unbeaten Home Record with Cup Win?

Aston Villa’s form has picked up recently, as the Villans have won five of their last eight in all competitions. Emery’s side have been solid at home, winning four and drawing one of the previous five.

Julen Lopetegui is facing the sack, as West Ham languish in 14th spot in the Premier League table. The Hammers were starting to show signs of life, but heavy defeats to Liverpool and Manchester City have brought them back down to earth.

With huge games in the Premier League and UEFA Champions League coming up, this is an important stage of the season for Villa. Can they continue their momentum with a win in the FA Cup on Friday?

West Ham are desperate to turn their fortunes around, and a win in the cup at Villa Park would be the ideal start. However, Villa are hard to beat at home, and the London side could be in for a tough evening in the Midlands.
