Aston Villa is in fantastic form this season.

They are currently on a 9-game unbeaten streak with 7 wins and 2 draws in the Champions League and the Premier League.

In the last match against Bayern Munich, they even exceeded expectations and proved that they can compete on a tactical level against any opponent.

Today they face a defensive Italian side in Bologna that doesn't like to concede that many goals.

That stat can be highlighted with the stunning six draws that they have in Italy.

Bologna has conceded only 4 shots on target in the previous match away at Liverpool which they end up losing 2:0.

They know how to defend and earn hard draws, especially away.

Similar to their previous display at Anfield, we expect them to sit back for most of the game against Villa.

But given their recent struggles in the attack since the transfer of their main striker, Zirkzee, we can see a little threat going forward for them.
