Liverpool - Aston Villa betting tips and odds

Liverpool are likely on their way to a decisive victory, and it’s hard to feel optimistic about the visitors’ prospects. Bookmakers are pricing a home win at 1.51, which is quite in line with most expert opinions.

Considering what they’re up against, Aston Villa can’t set their ambitions too high in this match. Playing as visitors at odds of 6.50 for an away win, calling them underdogs seems like an understatement.

The hosts are coming on the back of a decisive victory at Leicester City. If we keep the 5.20 betting odds on them winning in mind, such an outcome was not exactly unexpected. Still, away wins are always valuable, and they performed quite well.

Villans confirmed the HT/FT market in the previous round with a narrow $RESULT victory. The pre-match betting odds for them winning were set at 3.15, which means it wasn’t the easiest of matchups either.

The Reds’s attackers have been seeing a lot of success lately, even in away matches. For instance, they scored 6 times during the course of their previous three away games.

Villans have scored 6 times in their previous 3 games. If their attacking line continues the fine scoring form, the Over markets seem like a sure bet.

The hosts are going into this match as favourites, but any ambitions of Europa League qualification seem hard to fulfil. We’re very close to the season’s finish line.

Aston Villa would need 5 points to earn a significant improvement in their standings, which is pretty much a moot point at this point in the season. Still, even though they’ll likely lose this match, they’ll be moving on to the Europa League.

The Reds clearly have the upper hand in this matchup, though it doesn’t seem insurmountable by any means. They won despite a home-field disadvantage the last time they clashed with Villa, but it was a rather narrow victory.

This will no doubt be an exciting match because both squads will be able to come out in full force. No players have been sidelined due to injury or suspension, and this goes for both sides.

An Under 3.5 Goals bet is an interesting choice for this match. It’s quite safe as you might expect, but the 1 odds offer more in the way of betting value than you would think.
