Aston Villa host West Ham in the Premier League this evening as Dean Smith’s men look to go level on points with their visitors.
A home win here would see ninth-placed Villa equal West Ham’s 35 points, but with two games in hand over the Hammers, who are currently fifth in the table.
Villa broke a somewhat tepid run in the top flight by defeating Southampton 1-0 at St Mary’s last time out, while West Ham were beaten 3-1 by a resurgent Liverpool in east London.
