West Ham are without a win in their last four league games, and have only managed to win three of their 16 games across all competitions so far this season. The Hammers have improved a lot under Nuno Espirito Santo, but were defeated 2-0 in their last home game against Liverpool. West Ham have only failed to score in one of their last seven fixtures, so we do expect the hosts to find the back of the net on Sunday.
Aston Villa have a good recent record against the Hammers, going unbeaten in the pair's last six meetings, securing three wins in the process. Both teams have scored in each of the pair's last six encounters, and Aston Villa have claimed 2-1 victories in two of their duo's last three head-to-heads.
Visitors Aston Villa are in the midst of an eight-game winning streak across all competitions, and have scored at least two goals in seven of those matches. However, both teams have scored in five of Villa's last six outings, so there is a good chance that we will see both teams score on Sunday.
West Ham 1-2 Aston Villa
