Aston Villa v Everton Pre Match thread

They are unbeaten this season and sitting pretty on 10 points.
With the run of games coming up we really have to be winning this but it’s a tough one.

1-1 and pressure starting to build up on Dean.

It is. But only has himself to blame. 1 point vs brentford and watford is poor

Likely Everton will switch to a back 4. They were transformed once Benitez made that switch v Brighton. Really good test for us. Big decision is whether to start Ings or not. Loads of options for Smith.

We've generally matched up well v them since promotion.

I think that will continue on Saturday. 2-1 win, Ollie and Bailey.

[Lastfootstamper]

We’ll win this. Everton we’re very poor up to the point Townsend scored that wonder goal and as we’re better than Burnley I think we’ll over power them.

My thinking too. Whilst we might not be all that yet, neither are they. Tight contest with not much in it, but us to win. I'll go 2-0, Bailey and Watkins, plus a nice cameo from Traore that sends us all home smiling. And fancy myself to be on the end of one of many no-nonsense Mings clearances.

Due to a rearranged beer festival I'll be supping while checking my phone every five minutes.

2-1

Think we will win this one

Just noticed there's still tickets available. Thought this would have been a complete sell out? I'd have expected sell outs for every Match this season , quite concerning just three games in

[Border villan]

Less than 100 tickets available.

The ones near you are always hard to shift.

I won't sleep tonight for worrying, now.

2-1 win. One down early doors, cue much disquiet and arm folding and people predicting Deano out before the clocks go back. Ings and AEG on after 70 mins. Ings with the equaliser on 75 mins AEG with the winner 90+3. Cue Deano being hailed as a tactical genius and the next England manager. Fickle? Us?

There's 95 seats available.  I'd guess the vast majority are ST holder resales.

Quite concerning?  Get a fucking grip.

[andyh]

I would have said 95 seats left out of 42k is pretty much a sellout.

[cdbearsfan]

There were ninety-seven when I checked about ten minutes ago. At this rate they won't sell out for hours! I'm with Flin5tone, it's a disgrace. I'm writing to the club.
