by Sridhar Bhamidi in Premier League Predictions
West Ham have the onerous task of stopping a red-hot Aston Villa as the sides meet in London in a matchday 16 fixture of the English Premier League. This match between the 18th-placed Hammers and the third-placed Lions comes with our prediction of both teams scoring goals.
The Hammers have 13 points (W3, D4, L8) and start this round in the relegation zone, while being two points adrift of safety. Villa's 30 points (W9, D3, L3) see them start just three points behind leaders Arsenal, while being four points above Crystal Palace.
After starting November with consecutive wins, West Ham have struggled to live up to expectations, drawing three and losing one of their next four games. Those two wins have come at home, giving a ray of hope. Villa will be out to snuff those hopes, as they carry an irrepressible form of nine wins from their last ten Premier League matches. Are we in for another Villa win that puts more pressure on the Hammers? Or, will the home fans lift West Ham to an improbable win? Read more for our analysis, team news, and match predictions.

West Ham - Aston Villa: Form Analysis
West Ham held Brighton to a 1-1 away draw in the Premier League last weekend for a third draw in their last four games (L1). This run puts them under threat, negating the positives of winning two matches in a row at the start of November.
Those two victories came against Newcastle and Burnley, both coming at this venue. Those wins were followed, however, by a 2-0 loss to Liverpool at the London Stadium in their latest match here.
West Ham are winless in their last six matches against Villa (D3, L3).
Villa defeated Basel 2-1 away from home this week in the Europa League. That marked an eighth consecutive win for the Lions in all competitions. Their form is even more impressive in the league, as Villa won nine of their last ten Premier League games (L1).
That included a 2-1 win at home over Arsenal last matchday, which brought them into the title race. Even on the road, the Lions have three wins of their last four league matches (L1), only losing to Liverpool in the process.

West Ham & Aston Villa Squad Analysis
Lukasz Fabianski and Oliver Scarles remain the only injury absences for West Ham. Igor Julio is likely to be available, although not from the start. The Hammers are likely to stick to a 3-4-2-1 formation, although they have tinkered with different versions of 4-2-3-1 or 3-4-1-2.
The front three will remain the same, with Callum Wilson leading the line and Jarrod Bowen and Mateus Fernandes slotting right behind in the final third. Both Wilson and Bowen have four goals each to their name in the Premier League and will be key.
Wilson has three goals in his last five league games for West Ham.
Tyrone Mings remains unavailable for Villa, with their captain still sidelined. Ross Barkley is another confirmed absence, with the duo ruled out until the new year.
The visitors will line up in their traditional 4-2-3-1 formation with Ollie Watkins leading the line. Watkins scored a brace in Villa's last away game, a 4-3 win at Brighton. Emiliano Buendia scored Villa's victory against Arsenal last time and has four Premier League goals to his name this season.

Our West Ham vs Aston Villa Prediction
Aston Villa are perhaps the team to beat in England, if not Europe, going by their run of eight consecutive wins in all competitions. Even in the league, nine wins from their last ten fixtures make them a tough team to face. West Ham have drawn three of their last four league matches, struggling to come out of the relegation zone. Even their home venue has failed to inspire, as the Hammers could win just two of their seven league games here.
Going by the recent run of these sides, our West Ham vs Aston Villa prediction is BTTS.

Villa wins and BTTS
Is it easy to look beyond Villa in current form? Over their last ten league games, only Liverpool were able to stop them, and even the leaders, Arsenal, were brushed aside. West Ham are a stubborn side, but stopping Villa could take some doing. Back Villa to win and BTTS to happen.

Forget the state of this season, West Ham would love to break their recent duck against Aston Villa. The Hammers are winless in their last five Premier League games against Villa (D3, L2). Speak about motivation!
Speaking of motivation, Villa also have one when coming to this venue. They won this exact fixture 2-1 last season, and another victory here will make it the first set of consecutive away wins against West Ham since December 1996.
Villa’s recent form gives them enough confidence to do that, as they have won nine of their last ten Premier League matches (L1). They are the first team in any of the top four divisions of the Football League to win none of the first five games of a league campaign and then win at least nine of the next ten.
