West Ham United vs Aston Villa Prediction
Whilst points on the board are important for both sides here, this is a game both sides will be desperate not to lose. West Ham continue to plug away in the league, and they are never a side that are beaten easily, whilst Aston Villa are missing a few key men and cannot afford to lose in the race for the top 4. This could be cagey and it could end up being a draw.
Prediction: The match to finish as a draw – 11/4 (+275) – Rhino Bet.
West Ham United vs Aston Villa – The Ultimate Bet
