Aston Villa v Fulham
Kick Off: Saturday 3rd May at 12:30
Aston Villa will aim to bounce back from a crushing 3–0 defeat to Crystal Palace and keep their Champions League qualification bid on track against Fulham. With their hopes of silverware now over, Unai Emery’s side returns to the comforts of home, where they’ve been formidable this season, and will see this as an ideal opportunity to strengthen their grip on a top five finish.
⭐ Aston Villa v Fulham Best Bet
Aston Villa have turned Villa Park into one of the toughest away days in Europe this season. They’re unbeaten in 19 consecutive home matches across all competitions (W13, D6), with a 16-game unbeaten run in the league. Liverpool, PSG, and Bayern Munich have all failed to win here this season.
Villa haven’t lost back-to-back Premier League games since the start of last season, and that bounce-back mentality is expected to come to the fore again on Saturday.
Fulham remain mathematically alive in the hunt for Europe, but their away form offers little encouragement. A stoppage-time winner over relegated Southampton last weekend merely masked deeper issues, they’d lost three in a row on the road prior. Their five away wins in 2025 have come against Leicester, Wolves, Man United, and League One Wigan - Villa are a cut above these teams.
Fulham have lost their last four league meetings with Villa and have tasted victory at Villa Park just once in their last 20 visits (D7, L12).

👕 Aston Villa v Fulham Predicted XI
🔍 Aston Villa v Fulham Players to Watch
🟣 Boubacar Kamara
Kamara is set for a fierce midfield duel with Sasa Lukic, one likely to get physical. The Villa midfielder averages 1.45 fouls committed per 90 but has committed 2+ in each of his last four matches. Lukic, who is involved in an average of 3.41 fouls per 90, will almost certainly test Kamara’s discipline.
⚪ Sasa Lukic
Fulham’s Serbian midfielder is a fouling machine. Averaging 2.35 fouls per 90, Lukic has committed two or more fouls in seven of his last nine appearances, registering at least one in all his last 14 matches. He’s committed multiple fouls in 18 of his 28 starts this season, underscoring his aggressive midfield role. He'll be facing Aston Villa’s dangerous right-hand side, which has drawn 17 fouls across their last five.
⚪ Ryan Sessegnon
While his starting role isn’t guaranteed, nor his exact starting position, Sessegnon remains one to watch. After netting the dramatic winner last week, his impact in the final third can’t be ignored. He’s been involved in a Premier League goal every 69 minutes, a ratio bettered only by Mohamed Salah (among players with 400+ minutes). If he starts, especially in an advanced role, this price offers real value.
