Aston Villa vs Leicester City Pre-Match Thread

Win. We should come out of the blocks firing, put them on the back foots and when we go 1-0 don't hold back, keep them under the cosh.

Would love to see a real confidence boosting 2/3-0. Benteke double and someone other than a forward to contribute.

Oh and with Wes Morgan out I fully expect the beast to abuse the replacement centre back. Give him the ball and get some support up to him, he'll destroy them.

Feeling strangely optimistic.  Three one win with a goal in the second half for good measure.

Just imagine if we scored a second half goal in front of The Holte!

Owls mate: "Reckon you'll win 3-1."

Me: "Three? THREE? "

Don't we normally draw at home to Leicester, even when we're 4-1 up!

I was there.

Me too. Garry Parker had joined them - from us - about 3 weeks earlier and along with Draper ran the show once they were 4-1 down. Was this not the famous night where Tommy Johnson puked up pitchside before kick off?

Imagine being the key word here.

3-1 win, the Benteke goal will do him a world of good and I expect him to score at least another on Sunday and an all round enjoyable performance for once. I hope.

I'm surprised how much Leicester have nosedived as they looked decent earlier this season, against some good teams aswell. Seems the Man. United win went to their heads.

We really should be creating a few chances against their defence.

4-0 win. Agbonlahor hat-trick and an own goal by De Laet.

Pat McMahon will hit a screamer that flies past Shilton into the net, hits the inside of the back stanchion, bounces straight out again and the ref won't give it.

and Shilton denied it went in! Lying bustard!

[Richard E]

Shilton had form for denying things went in. Tina! Tina!

[Lizz]

3-1 home win.

[silhillvilla]

Haha , I was in the Holte behind the goal the "Tina" game.
Was bloody hilarious.

[Richard E]

I remember giving him some stick for it at the Baseball Ground.

Draw.  I don't think our record against Leicester has been that good over the last 20 years.
