Villa are fourth in the Premier League table at the moment with 49 points from 25 matches, while Forest are currently 16th with 24 points from 25 matches, four points above the relegation zone.

Crouch said on That Peter Crouch Podcast: “Villa obviously had such an incredible home record, come under threat a little bit, but still had a good win away from home. Nottingham Forest as well had a great result.”

The pundit added: “2-1 Villa.”

My View: Nottingham Forest will win vs Aston Villa

In my view, Nottingham Forest will win against Aston Villa at Villa Park in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.

Forest won their last Premier League match, beating West Ham United 2-0 at the City Ground.

Yes, Villa are at home for the game on Saturday and have the better team, but I believe that the Reds have what it takes to eke out a win at Villa Park.

It is not going to be easy, though. Forest have to be very disciplined, and attacking midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White will have to be on top of his game.
