The Toffees have struggled to get results over the last few weeks, being on a five-match winless streak and still having the threat of dropping into the relegation zone looming over their shoulders.
Meanwhile, Unai Emery’s side is now only a few points away from the top of the table. They are going strong and need to be winning these games to reaffirm themselves as genuine title challengers rather than being just a flash in the pan.
Villa’s impressive form this season alongside with Everton’s recent slump has caused the former to be the bookmakers’ favorite to get a positive.
UK Betting Odds
Aston Villa win
The Villans are given pretty favourable odds by BetFred for the win, with a 7/5 odds to come out as victorious in the match. This means that if one was to bet $1 on them to get a win and that result came true, they would be getting a $2.40 return with a $1.40 profit.
Everton win
Everton have slightly lesser odds when it comes to getting the win over Villa at home. BetFred has them with 9/5 odds, meaning if one bets $1 on them to get the result and it comes true – then they’d get a $2.50 return.
Meanwhile, there is quite an interesting 5/2 odds on a draw – which would mean that a $1 bet is going to fetch you a return of $2.50.
US & Canada Betting Odds
Aston Villa win
Aston Villa are the bookmakers’ favourite in the US and Canada too, with Bet US giving them a favourable +144 odds to win the game. That would mean if one were to bet $1 on them to win, they would get a return of $2.44 with a decent $1.44 return.
Everton win
The hosts are given a +179 odds by Bet US, which means that if they get the win and one was to bet $1 on that to happen – then the person would get a return of $2.79 with a profit of around $1.79.
Betting Tips
Everton are going into this game after not scoring in their last game (against Crystal Palace) and they are also without a goal in four of their last five games against Aston Villa. Emery’s side, however, has only kept one clean sheet in their previous six games across all competitions.
Bet US is offering an interesting +900 odds for a 2-1 win to Aston Villa, which can be an interesting one. That would mean a $1 on the same will get one a $10 return if the result comes out as true. Considering the slightly leaky Villa backline and Everton’s desire to get a result, this clash could end up being with this scoreline.

11 – Arsenal, Everton 8 – Manchester City, Luton, Tottenham, Wolves 7 – Aston Villa, Newcastle 6 – West Ham 5 – Chelsea, Liverpool, Fulham pic.twitter.com/5v9OSQJmB5
The total goals exact odds are also at 3/1, meaning a $1 bet for the same can also get you a return of $4. In BetUs, its +330 – meaning a bet of $1 can get you a $4.30 return! With Everton loving their set-piece routines, there are bound to be a lot of corners in this one. That is why the +300 odds for 6-8 corners, which would mean a $1 bet gets you a $3.0 return, can be a decent one too.
Moussa Diaby is a man in form, having scored in Villa’s last game against Burnley and he has the 3/1 odds for anytime goal-scorer. This means a $1 bet can fetch you a $3 return, which can be a decent gamble to take for a player with eight goal contributions in the Premier League.
Villa’s excellent Ollie Watkins has favourable 5/1 odds for scoring the first goal in the game, which can fetch one a $6 return for every $1 bet. He’s scored nine goals in 20 league games this season and has all the qualities to run riot in this game.
