Aston Villa vs Blackburn Rovers pre-Match thread

[St AustellAVFC]

Up in brum and off to the game with the kids today and can’t wait. Think we will score early and control the game, a no dramas 4-0 win. Mings and Tammy x3

Please don't QPR it Villa.

Should be a win. Apparently Mulgrew has scored 3 times direct from a corner this season, which must be a record.

I reckon we'll start off slow after the break we've had but run out winners in the end. 3-1 to us. McGinn, Grealish and Hourihane. Colin Hendry for them.

Ticket update: OS is no longer showing those 3 blocks upstairs in the Doug (away) as available. 195 seats available, 149 of which are in A5.

Just hope the International break hasn't disturbed the teams rhythm, early goal could settle us, solid Villa win, 2-0 Villa.

I’d really like us to send a message to the other teams around us - give up, we’re on a roll!! I’ve probably jinxed that now...

Biggest home scorers against biggest away conceders.

They've got some defenders back, but I suspect they'll be a bit more open than Boro and try and play in the front a bit more via Dack. On that basis I think we'll have more chance to counter them.

Same team as Boro for me.

3-0 Vills.

With those stats, it'll probs end up being 0-0 then!

Actually, I think we'll win (again) today: so I'm going for 3-1 (& hopefully no injuries or silly cards).

Should be a real cracker today, looking forward to this one, Boro have a difficult game, let's hope they slip up, we can take up 5th place residency, very nice indeed.

Play-offs looming,
