Manchester City (W)

vs

Aston Villa (W)

Preview

Manchester City Women

• City have won five consecutive games, including a 3-0 derby win at Manchester United last time out and a 3-0 victory at Leicester.
• The hosts, however, are top of the table for a reason - their home league record is five wins from five, and they’ve conceded just four goals in that time, which is something to consider when looking at Manchester City (W) vs Aston Villa (W) betting tips.

Aston Villa Women

• Aston Villa Women have one win in their last five games and are on a three-match losing streak, including a 2-1 away defeat at Tottenham.
• Villa have been a solid but unspectacular team away from home in the Super League Women this season, winning two, drawing two and losing one of their five road games, and averaging 1.00 goals scored per game and 0.60 conceded.

Key Players

• Khadija Shaw is the talisman for the Citizens, netting eight Super League goals in ten appearances, and four of City’s last nine goals have been scored by Shaw.
• Kirsty Hanson has been a revelation for the Villans, with four goals in nine Super League appearances, and three in her last five.
• She’s the most likely player to get on the scoresheet for the visitors, while the pace of Chloe Kelly and Lauren Hemp should ensure that City are always a threat going forward.

Betting Insights

• City are rightful favorites at around the 1.3 mark, and Villa are huge underdogs at 8.65.
• City’s perfect home record and Villa’s inconsistent away form suggest the hosts are the safe side for match bets, which supports our Manchester City (W) vs Aston Villa (W) betting tips for the encounter.
