Aston Villa v Manchester City
Aston Villa have won only one of the last six Premier League games against Man City (W1 D1 L4).
Darren Bent has scored seven goals in 12 Premier League games against Man City; only against Bolton (11) has he netted more often.
Villa have won two and lost none of the last four home games against Man City.
Manchester City have won just one of their last six Premier League away games (W1 D2 L3).
In that six game run, Roberto Mancini’s side have scored just three goals.
If Villa don’t win this match, it will be their longest run of home games without a win in Premier League history (7) and just one short of their top-flight worst mark of eight games set in March 1921.
David Silva has more Premier League assists than any other player in the Premier League (12).
Aston Villa are the only team yet to score a Premier League goal from a corner, but have conceded from a league-high 10.
Manchester City have scored the most goals from corners (11).
79% of the goals Man City have conceded have been in the second half, a league high proportion.
