AFC Bournemouth host Aston Villa in the Carabao Cup after just thrashing their league opponents 3-0, while Aston Villa also won 2-1 in the league. Both come in having won, but their different styles will make this game interesting. AFC Bournemouth have won 4 in a row, scoring freely, especially at home where they often lead at half-time and tend to score between the 31st and 45th minutes. Aston Villa have also won 4 in a row, but their defence still shows gaps, especially late in games where they concede often. This game should be open from the start, as both teams are confident from their recent form. If either team scores first, the game could change direction immediately, especially if AFC Bournemouth take the lead they will play even more comfortably. Aston Villa also have the potential to equalise or turn it around.
