Featured Tip from James Bartman

Pick Details

Sport / league:: EPL
Event / fixture:: Man City vs. Aston Villa
Event date: Mon, 25 May 2026 at 1:00 AM
Market:: Head-to-head
Tip:: Man City @ 1.50 (bet365)

Regardless of what happens in Manchester City’s fixture against Bournemouth, this is rumoured to be their final fixture under Pep Guardiola. They will want to see him off in style, while Aston Villa will be backing up following their Europa League final clash in Türkiye. With Aston Villa having already locked in UEFA Champions League spot for next season, they have little to collectively play for. With the FIFA World Cup this summer, the Villa players who will be involved in that tournament will have mentally checked out of this Premier League season. Going back to 2007, Manchester City have won 15 consecutive league home games against Aston Villa.
