Aston Villa vs Manchester City

Manchester City travel to Villa Park looking to maintain their perfect start to the Premier League season, having won all seven of their opening league matches.
City have demonstrated impressive consistency, combining attacking firepower with the ability to control games against strong opposition.
Erling Haaland has been in outstanding form, scoring eight league goals in seven appearances and providing a constant threat in the final third.
Phil Foden has also rediscovered his scoring touch, netting four goals across his last two appearances.
Aston Villa have improved recently, but they remain inconsistent in the league and currently sit in the middle of the table.
Villa also have several injury concerns, including Amadou Onana and Ian Maatsen, which could weaken their balance and depth.
Although City are missing Antoine Semenyo, Haaland is expected to be available after being rested in midweek.
City's superior squad depth and current momentum give them a strong platform to secure another league victory.
At odds of 1.72, the away win is an interesting option, although Villa's recent improvement means this will not be an easy fixture.
Final pick: Manchester City to Win @ 1.72 (on Betfair) — predicted score: Aston Villa 1–2 Manchester City.
