Aston Villa v Wolverhampton Wanderers Pre Match

[Aldridge Villa]

Injury lists for both sides seem fairly equitable. Bit of a bogey side for us of late, fancy it will end up all square.

[Drummond]

However, we could really do with a win and be aiming for 9 points in 8 days...

I'd (very) happily take 6 points from the next 3 games. Think it's more likely to be 4 points.

Hope for 9.
Take 6.
Happy enough with 5 (given what results that means)
Disappointed 4
Worry 3
Gutted any less than 3
Wheels off, engine exploded 0

An accurate spectrum of points-to-emotion ratio.

Take 6? To be honest I’d be delighted with 6. Today is massive, we really do need to win and ideally play well. It’s never easy against them, but Neto, Hwang, and Dawson are big losses for them. That said, if Cunha is back he’s been good for them. Come on Villa, big performance and result today please.

[Clampy]

Really could have done with SJM for this one. I've had 2-2 in my head all week.  A Luiz Penalty and Bailey for us. Bull and Mutch for them.

[Richard E]

2-0. Digne and Watkins.

[Risso]

We've got to be beating Wolves and Brentford at home in the next three games. Anything less probably means we won't be finishing top 4, and depending on what Man U do, might make even top 5 less likely.

Yep.  There will probably be  a couple of surprise results for the teams in the top 6 (see Fulham battering spurs) but now is the time that the teams that finish in the top 4 stop dropping points and start grinding wins out. 

[ASHTONVILLA]

Hoping we are close to getting some players back fit after the break. Could have done without Cash getting injured.

Think we will win this one, and we need to with harder games coming up. 2-0 Watkins and Tielemans.

[Martyn Smith]

Biggest game of the season so far and absolutely will let us know if we have the chops for the CL. This is the sort of game we would be looking at winning in any case. I think we will, a hard fought 3-1 I'm saying

I agree that it's massive. I fear we'll bottle it.

Me too. But I'm so conditioned to thinking that, I'd probably still think it if we were joint owned by every petro-fascist in the world and had a squad worth a gazillion quid.

Same!

[Stu]

1-2/3 wolves, who seem to have the sign over us, as injuries and games played really start to bite.

[ChicagoLion]

It’s like every league game now is massive.
Better than mid table mediocrity or worse checking over our shoulders at the relegation zone I guess.
Might have a pre match nerves pint.
