Bournemouth vs Aston Villa pre-match thread

[BoVillan esq]

2-1 Villa, build on the Semi Final, go forward, get these 3 points and start our complete survival campaign in the business end of the season, all important we win this, can't lose these kind of games and expect to stay up.

Hello all,
Trip to Bangkok this weekend as meeting friend at the airport tomorrow, So here i am in a sports bar watching the build to the games and a very interested stat come up on the Villa, The Villa has not won a away game in February since 2009,
Now i don't know if they mean just top flight but i thinking Jesus we had some bad spells in the past, Sorry for the negative thoughts.

We won 4-2 at Sheff Weds a couple of years ago. If they mean PL only they are right, although some years with cup games we only play 1 away league game in Feb.

Need a win but I have got a bad feeling

I think 2-1 to us, and Samatta's 'miss' on Tuesday will do him good. And hopefully we can do something with a corner and he can score from a header.

Wonder could Davis start ahead of Samatta? Away from home his ability to hold the ball up could be invaluable. Then Samatta on around the 60min mark or so when the game opens up. I'm not a fan of starting Drinkwater and wait for him to gas completely before bringing in Luiz. Hope Smith gives Luiz the start today.

Huge game and possibly a bit of a come down from Tues night. Can't afford to lose, 2-2.

We need three points so I will say 2-1 Villa win.
