In head-to-head encounters, results have been mixed: on February 1, Wolverhampton beat Aston Villa 2-0, on September 21, Aston Villa took revenge with a 3-1 win (over 2.5 goals hit), on March 30, 2024, Aston Villa won 2-0, on October 8, 2023, the teams drew 1-1, and on May 6, 2023, Wolverhampton won 1-0.

Wolverhampton had 43.6% possession, 2.2 yellow cards, 13.2 fouls, and 1 offside per game.
In their last five matches, Aston Villa saw over 2.5 goals three times, while Wolverhampton did so four times. Aston Villa's average total goals are 2.8, and Wolverhampton's are 4. Wolverhampton scores 1 and concedes 3 per game, while Aston Villa scores 2 and concedes 0.8. By halves, Aston Villa had two occurrences of over 1.5 goals in both the first and second halves, while Wolverhampton had two in the first half and four in the second half. The most frequent scoring interval for Aston Villa is the 31-45 minute mark (36%), and for Wolverhampton, it is the 61-75 minute mark (45%). Defensively, Aston Villa concedes most often in the 61-75 minute interval (50%), and Wolverhampton in the first 15 minutes (33%). Given Wolverhampton's high scoring in the series and Aston Villa's consistent performance, a bet on over 2.5 goals at 1.88 is justified. In five matches, both teams recorded over three goals four times, which is supported by their average goals scored and conceded. Additionally, Wolverhampton's second half is particularly productive, with four occurrences of over 1.5 goals, reinforcing the argument for high scoring.
On average, Aston Villa earns 4.6 corners, and Wolverhampton 2.2 per match. In five games, Aston Villa only once surpassed 9.5 corners, while Wolverhampton did so twice. The total closest to the average is 6.5, but in the odds, there's a pair for 6.5: over at 1.89, with no pair for under, so the closest total with both options is 9.5: over at 1.63, under at 2.19. There's also a total of 9.25 - over at 1.57, under at 2.31. For the outcome on corners, Aston Villa is favored with odds of 1.25. Considering the low averages for corners, a bet on under 9.5 seems logical, although the frequency of over 9.5 for both teams is low. However, when considering individual stats, Aston Villa often hits over 4.5 corners (odds of 1.29). Overall, the match does not promise a high number of corners, and a bet on under 9.5 looks justified.
