Emery taking top-five battle game by game, says Villa have been more up than down - Soccer News
""We are not thinking about the end of the season, we are thinking about now. We can speak about how we were in September, and we are enjoying the difference. We are enjoying the process, we are competing, we are feeling comfortable about how we are doing. It's been up and down sometimes, but more up than down, we went a lot of matches in a row winning.""
""Villa sit third in the Premier League and are firmly on course to return to UEFA's premier club competition, with England overwhelmingly likely to get a fifth qualification spot. However, their ambitions looked to be even loftier until recently, with some onlookers tipping Villa to challenge Arsenal and Manchester City for the title. Ahead of hosting Brighton on Wednesday, Villa have lost their last two home Premier League games, having won eight in a row beforehand.""
Aston Villa will take matches game by game in the quest to qualify for the Champions League. The club sits third in the Premier League and is strongly positioned to return to UEFA's top competition as England is likely to secure a fifth spot. Title chances are slim, with Opta assigning a 1.1% probability, while Villa have 43.9% to finish third and 95.5% to make the top five. Recent form includes eight consecutive home wins before back-to-back home losses. The team has not lost three straight league matches since November 2020. Midweek results have been mixed, and the squad reports a positive mood despite dropped points.
