📈 Feyenoord v Aston Villa Form & Tactics
Aston Villa look to be finally settling after a disastrous start to the season, which saw Unai Emery’s side go multiple games without even scoring a goal, let alone a victory. Back-to-back wins against Bologna and Fulham will bring some confidence, but there are still issues with this Villa side that don’t look like they’ll be fixed by a few victories.
Villa’s biggest problem at the moment is the faltering form of Morgan Rogers. He was their talisman last season but has produced some really poor performances this term, to the point where Villa fans were cheering when he actually managed to complete a pass against Bologna on Matchday 1. He did look a bit brighter against Fulham, registering an assist against the Cottagers, but his level is much higher than he’s been producing.
Feyenoord sit top of the Eredivisie, having won six of their seven games this season as Robin Van Persie looks to guide the Dutch side back to the summit of the Eredivisie, having watched PSV and Ajax battle it out in dramatic fashion last season.
Feyenoord have a really young squad, and there are some promising players who are worth keeping an eye on. Sem Steijn has been their most influential player so far this season with three goals and an assist to his name - he registered 39 goal contributions across his 48 appearances for Twente last season so he’s certainly a player that can end up impacting the game.
📔 Feyenoord v Aston Villa Formation & Team News
Aston Villa
Villa have played with the same identity under Emery since he joined, the wingers are narrow and they look to build through central areas whilst utilising fullbacks to keep width. This roughly looks like a 4-2-2-2, which becomes clear when Villa are without the ball.
That system will be slightly disrupted here with the absences that Villa are contending with in the middle of the park. Tielemans and Onana are both expected to miss this game, with McGinn also being a slight doubt. This will impact how effective Villa are at building through the thirds, and Feyenoord won’t be afraid to press them in this area, knowing the issues that they have already faced this season.
Feyenoord
Feyenoord usually line up in a 4-3-3, though this often becomes a 4-2-3-1 as Steijn pushes up into a more advanced role. They are quite an aggressive side as their foul and card record this season, outlined in the bet builder, show clearly. When it comes to absences and injuries, Feyenoord have a few doubts in Moder and Trauner as well as a long-term injury to Thomas Beelen, who was Feyenoord’s left back last season.
