Aston Villa host Brighton at Villa Park in the Premier League on Saturday, with both sides having contrasting seasons so far.

Aston Villa has been woeful of late, having lost their last five league games on the trot. New boss Steven Gerrard’s side are currently 16th in the table, two points off the relegation zone. They will hope to turn things around with a win against Brighton.

Brighton, on the other hand, has had a strong season so far. Graham Potter’s side is currently seventh in the league, however, they haven’t managed to win any of their last seven games across all competitions. They will hope to bounce back with a win against Aston Villa on Saturday.
