Villa vs Manchester City preview: The blue moon is gone, Guardiola has nothing to do Villa is not afraid of Manchester City at home

At 20:30 on the evening of December 21, Beijing time, in the 17th round of the English Premier League, Aston Villa hosted Manchester City.

Villa vs Manchester City, the highlights of the match are as follows:

First:Situation of both teams！ After 16 rounds of the Premier League, Villa ranked seventh with 7 wins, 4 draws and 5 losses, with 25 points; Manchester City is fifth with 8 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses with 27 points. In the last round of the Premier League, Villa lost 1-2 away to Nottingham Forest, Duran scored a goal, but was reversed by the opponent, and the three-game winning streak in all competitions was ended; Manchester City was reversed 1-2 at home by Manchester United, with 1 win, 2 draws and 8 losses in the last 11 games in all competitions.

Second:Villa are at home to Manchester City！ Pep Guardiola is one of football's top two coaches, but his coaching career has been too smooth sailing to face City's renewal and injury-related slumps. There is also Guardiola's mistake in seeing people, letting go of Palmer and Alvarez, and betting on Haaland, which has greatly reduced the team's offensive creativity and cannot play a tough battle. Villa's home stadium is trustworthy, and Guardiola has previously told the media that he has not done well and has no good countermeasures to face Manchester City's slump. Considering that Guardiola likes to let Gundogan play a single midfielder, coupled with the instability of Manchester City's backline, and Villa is good at counterattacking, this campaign is optimistic that Villa will be undefeated against Manchester City at home!

The two sides have met in the past 6 times, with Villa winning 1, drawing 1 and losing 4, which is at a disadvantage.

Injuries on both sides: Villa haveRamsey, Bailey (doubtful), Mings (doubtful)； Manchester City hasRodri, Bob, Ake, Dias, Akanji, Ederson (doubtful)。
