Unai Emery’s men have now lost back-to-back games for the first time since October 2024, as they sit in 7th place on the standings. Aston Villa almost secured a point against Manchester City when Marcos Rashford scored from the spot-kick to cancel Bernardo Silva’s early lead. Even though Pep’s team was the better side and threatened Aston Villa’s defense, Unai Emery’s men stood their ground. Unfortunately, they couldn’t do that for the final few seconds of the game, as Matheus Nunes scored in the 94th minute to restore City’s lead. It was a disappointing result despite their decent defensive shift.
After the loss against Manchester City in the English Premier League, they suffered a shocking defeat against Crystal Palace in the semifinals of the FA Cup. Aston Villa were stunned by an incredible Crystal Palace team, who scored three unanswered goals in the semifinals of the FA Cup.
On the opposing end, Fulham have been inconsistent in recent games, heading here with two wins across their last six matches—Marco Silva’s team march here following their hard-fought victory over a relegated Southampton side. Fulham, who conceded first in the 14th minute and were on the losing end up until the 72nd minute, pulled off one of their greatest comebacks, as Smith Rowe and Ryan Sessegnon scored to hand their side the maximum points.
Head-to-head Statistics
Aston Villa won seven games, while Fulham recorded three wins in their last ten meetings.
Aston Villa have failed to keep a cleansheet in the Premier League home games since their (0-0) stalemate against Manchester United in October.
In their last eight meetings, Unai Emery has won six, while Marco Silva has recorded a win and a game ending in a share of their spoils.
Aston Villa have lost just one game on their ground in the Premier League this campaign.
Betting Tips
For Aston Villa, a win is essential in their pursuit of a continental spot. They are three points away from playing in the Champions League next season. At the same time, Fulham will strive to fight till the end to ensure they secure a ticket to the Conference League.
Aston Villa are stronger on their home turf, and considering what they intend to achieve, they are the favorite to secure the maximum. However, I’m a bit worried about their inconsistent defensive performance at home. Fulham won’t be a walkover, as I expect them to at least find the back of the net. To be on the safe side, I believe a home win or draw and BTTS will surface here.

Lecce vs Napoli
Marco Giampaolo’s men have been in terrible form this season, and they’ll be lucky to remain in this competition. Lecce’s last win in the Serie A came against Parma on the 31st of January 2025. Since then, they have shared the spoils four times while recording seven losses. More recently, they pulled off a shocking result against Atalanta on the road, splitting points in a game where they had just (26%) of the ball. The performance gave them a lifeline in their attempt to survive relegation this season, as they are now two points above the drop zone.
On the other hand, Napoli are aiming for their second Serie A title in three years. Napoli presently sit at the top of the log, three points above Inter Milan, who are heavily involved in the UEFA Champions League. Antonio Conte’s side are now unbeaten in their last three league games, heading here with a (2-0) victory over Torino at home. Scott McTominay scored a brace as he increased his tally to eleven goals this campaign. They have now won three consecutive league games while keeping a clean sheet.
Head-to-head Statistics
Napoli have won six while Lecce have recorded two wins and two games ending in a tie over their last ten meetings.
Napoli are unbeaten in their last six meetings against Lecce.
Napoli have won their last four away games against Lecce, scoring more than a goal in each game.
Betting Tips
Napoli are presented with a golden opportunity to go six points ahead in the title race, as their fellow rivals have a difficult game in the UEFA Champions League. This game is assumed to be an easy win for Napoli, as Lecce will need luck to stop them from scoring before the break. Napoli, who have kept the joint-most cleansheet (16) this campaign, are expected to maintain such a record against such a lowly ranked opponent.
Antonio Conte’s men won’t disappoint against a relegation-threatened team, and I expect them to amass all the points away from home.

Borussia Dortmund vs Wolfsburg
Since their elimination from the UEFA Champions League, Borussia Dortmund have won back-to-back league matches as they sit in 6th spot on the log. Niko Kovac’s men stand a slim chance of returning to the UEFA Champions League next season as they must win all their remaining games and hope Freiburg drop points to achieve their dreams. Borussia Dortmund head here, having won four of their last five Bundesliga matches. Recently, they secured a (2-3) away victory over a stubborn Hoffenheim on the road. Serhou Guirassy, Julian Brandt, and Waldemar Anton were all on the scoresheet against Hoffenheim.
On the other hand, Wolfsburg have not been in decent shape lately, although they are safe to remain in the Bundesliga. They have lost five and drawn twice in their last league matches. More recently, they suffered a shocking loss on their home turf, as continental-bound Freiburg scored once to cart away all the points. Ralph Hasenhuttl's men were in control of the game until Arnold was shown a red card in the 26th minute.
Head-to-head Statistics
Over their last ten meetings, Borussia Dortmund have won seven, while Wolfsburg have managed two wins and a game ending in a tie.
Borussia Dortmund have not lost at home against Wolfsburg since 2014.
The last time Wolfsburg lost by a two-goal margin was against Borussia Dortmund in their (1-3) home defeat.
Betting Tips
Borussia Dortmund can’t afford to slow down at this crucial moment if they are to play in the UEFA Champions League, and they must secure the maximum points at home tomorrow. They’ll face off against a Wolfsburg team who are playing for pride as they wouldn’t be relegated or involved in continental competition.
Niko Kovac’s men are expected to start strong and hopefully they get a goal before the break against their guests tomorrow.
