However, recent meetings at Villa Park have been competitive: Aston Villa won the last two home Premier League matches against City, 1-0 in October 2025 and 2-1 in December 2024. The most recent encounter, in May 2026 at the Etihad, ended in a 2-1 away win for Aston Villa, extending Villa's winning streak in this fixture to three games.
League Table Positions
Manchester City sit top of the Premier League with a perfect record: played 7, won 7, with 21 points and a goal difference of +12. Aston Villa are 12th with 8 points from 7 games (2 wins, 2 draws, 3 losses).

Win Probability: Aston Villa or Manchester City?
Our probability calculation, using bookmaker odds as the base and adjusting for recent form, H2H trends, and league positions, suggests: Aston Villa 20%, Draw 20%, Manchester City 60%. While Aston Villa have a strong recent home record against City, the visitors' perfect league start and dominant away record give them a strong edge.
