Aston Villa W form and stats

The hosts won their first Women's Super League game here at Villa Park, lifting spirits. Home statistics for Aston Villa W last season were 1 win, 3 draws and 7 losses from 11 games.

Villa are returning here after visiting Brighton W in a Women's Super League game and winning with a 1-0 scoreline. E. Gielnik scored the goal(s).

Preceding that game was the away draw at West Ham W that finished 1-1.

The home team are doomed in this game if you believe the odds offered on Arsenal W to win. Let's see if Villa are capable of creating a surprise here by looking at their earlier home games as massive outsiders: four games found revealing zero Aston Villa W wins, zero draws and four defeats.

Aston Villa W has scored 2 goals so far and conceded 1 goal from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.

Arsenal W form and stats

Only one away game in the Women's Super League so far for Arsenal W and it resulted in three points. Last season the statistics for their away games were 7 victories, 1 draw and 3 losses from 11 travels.

Arsenal W have succeeded in guarding their own goal lately, led by their goalkeeper Manuela Zinsberger. It's been 206 minutes since they last conceded in Women's Super League.

Arsenal are travelling after their nice 5-1 home win in the FA Cup Women against Tottenham W (placed 2nd). As mentioned above, Arsenal was the only team on the pitch versus Tottenham W in their previous game, winning 5-1. This could be a tougher task.

That result followed a home victory 5-0 versus Manchester City W in the Women's Super League.

Again, the away team are huge favourites in this match and any other result would be an upset. We checked our Tipsway database for earlier, recent games with Arsenal given similar win odds in an away game. This check revealed 15 matches with 14 wins as expected, one draw and zero surprise home wins. The favourites won 13 of these games by at least two goals.

Arsenal have another game away from home in just three sleeps, a Champions League Women match against Barcelona W. A demanding fixture list for them!

Arsenal W have the goal stats of 4-0 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.

Head 2 Head

Last two meetings involving these participants: Villa won zero, Arsenal W were winners in one and we saw one draw. one game with more than 2,5 goals, one match with under 2,5 goals.
