Aston Villa
EnglandCurrent form
After three rounds in the Champions League, only two teams have not lost a single point – Aston Villa and Liverpool. Undoubtedly, the Birmingham team made a strong bid for a possible finish in the top 8 with their play and results. The victories over Young Boys (3:0) and Bologna (2:0) did not cause much surprise. Between these matches there was a successful home game with Bayern (1:0). So far, the defense has been working flawlessly in the main European club tournament – not a single goal has been conceded in three rounds. Goalkeeper Martinez made a big contribution to this result – it was not without his seven saves that they managed to play to zero with Bayern.

1.70Tip and bets
Aston Villa have seen a significant decline, but so far this has only been evident in domestic tournaments. In the Champions League, the Birmingham team has been playing flawlessly and has not allowed itself a single misfire in three rounds, and has not even conceded a single goal yet. Brugge was unable to do much to counter Borussia and Milan, and is unlikely to surprise the upcoming opponent, who has made a strong bid to get into the top 8 and the players will clearly be extremely motivated to break their unsuccessful streak in domestic tournaments. We believe that due to their class advantage, the Lions will score another three points.
Our prediction is Aston Villa to win at odds of 2.20
Bet on total
Brugge defence suffered serious setbacks in the matches against Borussia and Milan, conceding three goals each. We don't think the hosts will be able to withstand the onslaught of a superior opponent today.
