Aston Villa vs. Leeds United: The matchup
After falling to the basement of the Premier League with a slow start to the 2025-’26 campaign, Leeds has reached another level since the calendar flipped to December and now sits in 15th position with a 7-9-10 mark and 30 points. While still having lost more matches than won, Leeds has a 6-7-2 mark over its past 13 matches spanning all competition, most recently advancing past Birmingham City on penalty kicks (1-1) in Sunday’s fourth round of the English FA Cup.
Aston Villa goes into Saturday as a narrow betting favorite (-115) on its home turf with plenty to gain from winning with the pecking order at the top of the Premier League tightening in the back half of the season. Villa is 15-5-6 overall with 50 points to hold the No. 3 spot behind Arsenal (58 points) and Manchester City (53) and just ahead of Manchester United (45) and Chelsea (44) in the race for a top-4 finish.
