Aston Villa will hope to improve the results of the league, where you only achieve one win in seven Premier League games when you travel to the GTech community stadium on Saturday.
The shape of villa has stuttered in the league in the past few weeks, but the men of Unai Emery will be joined by an impressive 3-1 victory against the Club Brugge in the Champions League on Tuesday evening to get into a strong position to increase to the last eight.
Emery’s team is also in the FA Cup, but their bad league return threatens to fully miss European football next season. They come in the 10th place in Brentford.
Brentford meanwhile lost only one of her last five and won three. Thomas Frank’s side was involved in several high -quality affairs at home this season.
Although the bees sit on 11th place, they are the sixth highest scorers in the league with 48 goals.
Here are the team messages that promise to be a fascinating collision.
