Aston Villa are a strong top-half side. Their games away at Etihad Stadium usually turn on midfield control and how well they defend transitions.

Betting notes

How to bet on Man City vs Villa

Four angles to weigh before you place a bet on this fixture.

  1. 01

    With the draw only 21%, the match-result market is fairly clean. Man City on the Man City -1 handicap gives a bigger price if you expect a comfortable win.

  2. 02

    Wait for the confirmed line-ups, usually out an hour before kick-off. A missing striker or first-choice keeper can move the goals lines more than the 1X2 price.

  3. 03

    The corners range is 11-14. The favourite tends to win most of them while the underdog sits deep, so team corners can beat the match total.

  4. 04

    Powerplay247 is an exchange: you can back or lay every market on Man City vs Villa and trade out in-play, for example after an early goal, instead of waiting for full time.
