Looking to extend on their sensational run of form, a high-flying Aston Villa will travel to east London on Sunday afternoon when they meet West Ham.

Embarking on what has become a remarkable purple patch, Aston Villa find the mood in their camp at a red-hot high and Unai Emery’s men will be confident of making another Premier League statement this weekend.

While the Hammers might have shown some signs of a fight on either side of November’s international break, Sunday’s hosts find themselves at the heart of a relegation scrap and look set for what is another stern examination here.

Two camps who are scrapping it out at opposite ends of the Premier League table, we have taken a glance at some of the most attractive West Ham vs Aston Villa Bet Builder Tips.

Villa’s remarkable run

While Aston Villa might have opened up the 2025/26 campaign with a real whimper, Emery’s side have come roaring back in a remarkable fashion and Sunday’s guests have rightfully received a string of plaudits from across the continent.

Booking a Europa League knockout stage ticket earlier in the week as they secured a 2-1 victory away at Swiss outfit Basel, the one-time Arsenal boss certainly finds the mood in his camp at a red-hot high.

In fact, opening this weekend’s Premier League fixtures sat in bronze medal position, Villa have won all of their previous eight consecutive appearances across all competitions.

Collecting a heavyweight domestic scalp last weekend as they snatched a stunning last-gasp 2-1 win at home against leading title contenders Arsenal, Emery’s side will be looking to lay down another marker here.

Pencilled in as a standout contender this weekend, it should also be highlighted that Villa secured a 2-1 victory when they last travelled to the London Stadium for a Premier League showdown back in August 2024.

A tricky test for the Hammers

Although West Ham might have suffered just a single defeat from any of their previous six Premier League appearances, the Hammers have come under some serious scrutiny this season.

While Nuno Espírito Santo might have only arrived at the London Stadium less than two months ago, the former Nottingham Forest boss will be more than aware that he has a major job on his hands.

Suffering injury-time heartbreak away at Brighton last weekend as they eventually had to settle for a 1-1 stalemate on the south coast, Sunday’s hosts still find themselves sat in the drop zone.

Likewise, last seen in east London falling to what was a routine 2-0 defeat at the hands of reigning Premier League champions Liverpool, the Hammers have gained a reputation for their glaring issues on home soil.

Including a woeful 5-1 drumming against historic rivals Chelsea back in August, West Ham have lost five of their first seven Premier League showdowns in front of their own supporters so far this season.

Chances could come thick and fast

Getting December underway with a stunning comeback away at Brighton as they eventually left the Amex with a rollercoaster 4-3 victory, Aston Villa have gained a fearsome reputation for their free-scoring performances.

Heading into November’s international break with a 4-0 romp against Bournemouth, Sunday’s guests have notched 19 goals on their eight-match winning run across all competitions.

Likewise, winning their previous three showdowns away from Villa Park by an aggregate score of 8-5, they will also meet a West Ham defence who have shown some rather glaring issues.

Already shipping 29 Premier League goals so far this season, Santo’s defence hold the third-worst defensive return among England’s elite. In fact, the Hammers have registered just a single clean sheet across any competition so far this season.

It’s also worth noting, West Ham have conceded 17 goals in their first seven Premier League appearances at the London Stadium.
