Opta Stats: Reading v Aston Villa

9Mar 2013

England - Premier League

 

It's the definition of a six-pointer as relegation threatened Reading and Aston Villa try to distance themselves from the drop zone.

 

Reading have lost four of their five Barclays Premier League games against Aston Villa. Villa are 3.2 to grab an away win.

 

Six of Reading's last seven goals at home have come in the 82nd minute or later. Reading are 1.9 to be the last team to score.

 

Five of Reading's 22 home goals this season have come in the 90th minute. The draw half-time/Reading full-time is 6.6.

 

Villa have conceded 17 goals in their last five Premier League away games. Over 2.5 goals is 1.87.

 

Reading have lost each of their last three Premier League games, the longest current run. They are just 1.28 to be relegated.

 

The Royals also have the longest run of defeats overall in the league this season (7). Reading are the joint favourites with QPR to finish rock bottom, at 2.7.

 

Villa have claimed only two points from losing positions this season, fewer than any other side. A Reading half-time/full-time win is available at 4.3.

 

Reading have conceded more goals to crosses (18) than any other team in the Premier League this season. Villa's Christian Benteke is 2.6 to score at any time.

 

Adam Le Fondre has gone four Premier League games without a goal, after scoring five in his previous three. Le Fondre is also priced at 2.6 to find the net.

 

Matthew Lowton is one of only three outfield players to play every minute of every Premier League game this season (along with Baines and Gerrard). Lowton has scored  one goal this season and is 15.0 to add to his tally.
