Southampton vs Aston Villa: prediction & betting odds 12 April 2025

The Matchday 32 Premier League clash between Southampton and Aston Villa will take place on April 12 at St Mary's Stadium. Southampton vs. Aston Villa: prediction and betting odds, statistics.

Southampton

In the last round, the club visited Tottenham and lost to the London side 1-3. As a result, their winless streak extended to seven matches (1 draw and 6 losses). Following this match, Southampton officially relegated to the Championship, setting a negative record as no team had previously been relegated from the Premier League after the 31st round (previously, Derby and Huddersfield were relegated after 32 matches). Additionally, the club's management decided to dismiss Ivan Juric from the position of head coach.


  • In their last 21 Premier League matches, the club has secured only one victory (3 draws and 17 losses).
  • Both teams scored in 9 out of Southampton's last 11 league games.
  • At least three goals were scored in 12 of the club's last 13 Premier League matches. 

Predicted lineup for Southampton (3-4-2-1)

Aaron Ramsdale – Ryan Manning, Jan Bednarek, Taylor Harwood-Bellis – Kyle Walker-Peters, Joe Aribo, Lesley Ugochukwu, Tyler Dibling – Kamaldeen Sulemana, Mateus Fernandes – Cameron Archer.


Midfielder Flynn Downes will miss the match due to suspension. Note that Simon Rusk will temporarily lead the team.

Aston Villa

The Birmingham side comes into this match on the back of three consecutive league victories. They first defeated Brentford 1-0 away and Brighton 3-0, and in the last round, they overcame Nottingham Forest 2-1 at home. Thanks to this series, the club climbed to seventh place and is now just two points away from the Champions League zone. Interestingly, Aston Villa had not won four consecutive Premier League matches since April 2023. 


  • The club has not lost in 6 of their last 7 league matches (4 wins and 2 draws).
  • Both teams scored in 7 of Aston Villa's last 10 Premier League encounters.
  • The Birmingham side has not scored more than one goal in 9 of their last 11 away Premier League matches. 

Predicted lineup for Aston Villa (4-2-3-1)

Emiliano Martinez – Tyrone Mings, Andres Garcia, Axel Disasi, Ian Maatsen – Youri Tielemans, Amadou Onana – Morgan Rogers, Donyell Malen, Marco Asensio – Ollie Watkins.

Southampton vs. Aston Villa: Match Prediction

The hosts of the upcoming match have already officially bid farewell to the Premier League. The club has lost 17 of their last 21 league matches, and now, having lost tournament motivation, it's hard to expect victories and a desire to play with maximum commitment. Even at their home ground, Southampton shows weak results, losing 9 of their last 10 Premier League games.


On the other hand, the Birmingham side is highly motivated at the end of the season. The team has excellent chances of qualifying for the Champions League zone. Besides, Aston Villa is in great form, having won their last three Premier League matches. Unai Emery's side needs to win this match, as they face much stronger opponents in upcoming games, where it will be challenging to earn the necessary points. I won't bet on a confident victory for the visitors, as the Birmingham side will be coming off a tough Champions League match, and they have a return fixture against PSG in this European competition in a few days.
