Aston Villa vs Liverpool betting odds

29th December, 2009

Tonight sees Liverpool take on Aston Villa and with Liverpool desperate to get points to secure a position in the top four, they will be doing all they can to win tonight’s game.

For Martin O’Neill, tonight’s game is crucial and if they want to stay ahead and avoid slipping away from the top four, repeating what they did last season, they will have to secure a win. In addition, Aston Villa will be keen to provide fans with a good result following their poor game against Arsenal.

Aston Villa will be missing winger Ashley Young due to suspension whilst Emile Heskey looks unlikely to be starting despite beginning against Arsenal on Sunday. For Liverpool, it is hopeful that Dirk Kuyt will play but Javier Mascherano will be missing after he was suspended.

Whilst bookies are not predicting that this is going to be a game full of goals, in the first goal scorer market Fernando Torres is priced at 9/2 with Bet 365 whilst Steven Gerrard is backed at 13/2.

Liverpool are backed at 7/5 to steal a win tonight with Aston Villa backed at 2/1. Bet 365 are pricing a draw at 9/4.

For the correct score market, Bet 365 have backed a final score of 0-0 at very likely odds of 15/2, with a 1-0 win from Liverpool backed at 13/2 and a 1-0 win from Aston Villa priced at a slightly unlikely 7/1.
