Expert Betting Tips

• In the last seven personal meetings between the teams in Birmingham, at least three goals were scored.
• Liverpool has outplayed Aston Villa in their last four matches in all competitions.
• The Merseyside club has scored at least two goals in five of the last six matches against Aston Villa.

The meeting promises to be one of the most interesting in the 17th round. Aston Villa will try to get a third consecutive victory under Unai Emery. However, that will be challenging, given the statistics of recent performances against the Merseysiders - defeats in the previous four meetings. In addition, Klopp's team will be motivated after losing to Man City in the League Cup. Against the Citizens, Liverpool could have converted many great scoring chances. We expect another total over in the next game and the visitors' victory.
