Brighton secured their Europa League plac e with a home draw against Manchester City on Wednesday, meaning just the seventh and final place in Europe for next year is on the line on Championship Sunday in the Premier League. Aston Villa are one of three teams in the race for seventh with Tottenham and Brentford. The Villans hold a one-point lead over Spurs and two over Brentford, who play Leeds United and Manchester City, respectively.
Aston Villa continued their excellent form with a road draw at Anfield that was fully deserved. Emery's side consistently played through Liverpool's attempts to pressure the ball and broke through in behind on multiple occasions. The Villans were able to limit the high turnovers and keep Liverpool from consistently beating them over the top – which happened frequently in the last meeting.
Brighton's defense has seen a real late season slide that comes from playing Roberto De Zerbi's style and having less to play for as the holiday approaches, but the firepower in a ttack remains elite in production. The Seagulls were unlucky to only score once against Pep Guardiola's City on Wednesday and can challenge even the best defenses.
