Football is back at the weekend, the Villa have been in good form, we go away to a team that is out of form but with the ability to win games.
So we all know what happens.

Yeah, we win the game because they're shit and we're better than they are.
2-0 Villa.
The Don and Tielemens.
FTF 8)
-
Just win Villa!
Please.
-
I predict a riot, in the form of smashing the back of their net, 1-3 FTF!!
-
Villa win, 2-1 or 3-1 to us.
-
Tricky very tricky game
I predict a 2.2 with us having to come from behind.
-
Do they still hate Ty? Anyway 2-0 Villa Little Emi blinder and an Ollie tap-in
-
1-1
-
They're a bit wank, let's funeral them. Memories of a Paddy Bamford hattrick at an empty VP five years ago ate hard to shake.
-
Last time we lost a PL game up there Joey G scored for us.
-
Thanks Drummond for getting their name correct.
Dirty Leeds 0 Us 3.
-
Anything less than victory will be a real disappointment.
1-1
-
Resist the initial noise and hullabaloo and we will be fine
-
Do they still hate Ty?
Considering the last time we played them they should just be grateful their ground isn't called Tyrone Mings Road as he owned the place.
There's a superb fan watch video of the Villa and Leeds fans at it, so funny but the best was Ty taking the piss by applauding them at the end of the game.

The sound of that Calum Chambers goal hitting the net lives absolutely rent free in my head. A glorious day. More of that please Villa.
-
0-4.
-
0 - 3
Buendia
Rogers
Malen

Most of their goals seem to come from headers. Feels like their promotion bounce has worn off, so hopefully we can get a win.
Imagine they'll come out all guns blazing in the opening 20 minutes though.
-
0 - 3
Buendia
Rogers
Malen
This will do. With Watkins for Malen because he needs it more
-
0-7
All of our Scottish players to score.

Wasn't that night sealed in style by the Ghanaian Villans singing "Villa, high-a, high-a! Leeds, low-a, low-a!"
Edit: Actually, I think in dulcet tones they sang "Leeds are falling apart again"... or maybe that was another great bunch of lads somewhere else.

I shall be following this on my phone while travelling back from bloody London which sometimes makes it easier than actually watching the blasted game.
Our designs on CL hinge on games like these, we throw a crap performance in every now and again then look back on how if affected us during the season as a whole and this feels like one of them. But experience makes you stronger, Emery is as determined as ever and SJM has the type of personality that will rub off on all in a brilliant week for him.
1-3
-
I'm looking forward to going tomorrow I can see us winning 2-1.

Have you rung the doctor yet?

A win has us at least 5th, perhaps 4th depending on the result in North London. Not bad considering the first 5 games.

Urgh Leeds away. Grim.

Time that Daz answered D.W.

A win will have us back in the top 4, for a few hours at least. Like you say, pretty incredible after our winless start. I doubt even the most positive of fans back then (and I include myself in that) would have had us back in the top 4 mix before the end of November.
Let's just get the win. After Forest's win yesterday, I'm taking nothing for granted against the teams at the bottom.
-
And that’s how we should approach all games in the Prem’ or all competitive games full stop.
-
I havent seen much of Leeds so far this season, if anything at all so im not sure what they're like as a footballing team (not very good judging by the table). It would be just like us to throw in a dodgy result but I'll go for 1-3. Buendia and Malen to carry on his good form with a couple. Alan Smith for them.
-
This one worries me, not so much because Leeds are any good (they're not) but because it is such a golden opportunity for us to break into the top 4 or 5 for the first time this season and I can't shake the feeling that we're going to fuck it
-
I think we’ll get beat. Just a feeling, hope I’m wrong obviously.
-
Same.
-
Bolstered with the courage of two very strong Ales at Dewsbury Train Station Pub I’m going 3-1 Villa. UTFV!

Get yourself to Dewsbury for a couple of strong ales.
