It’s a clash at the top of the Premier League this Wednesday. Fourth at the beginning of matchday 14, Aston Villa travel to fifth-placed Brighton & Hove Albion.
This is a duel that looks like a battle for Europe between two teams in relatively good form. Brighton have won three of their last four matches, ending Nottingham Forest's three-game winning streak last Sunday with a 2–0 win.
Aston Villa are currently the in-form team in the Premier League, with no fewer than five consecutive wins in all competitions, the latest of which came last Sunday at Villa Park against Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The Villans can consolidate their place in the top four with a win at Brighton on Wednesday. Conversely, Brighton could overtake their opponents with a win in front of their home fans.
Here is ’s guide to the game.
