Aston Villavs.West Ham

sportsmole.co.uk, 24 January 2025, 13:53

Aston Villa will be looking for a boost in their pursuit of a top-four finish as they host West Ham United in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.

The Villans were the victims of Monaco in the Champions League on Tuesday night, when Unai Emery's men suffered only their second defeat of the revamped League Phase.

There are domestic issues to contend with in East London for Graham Potter, who has inherited an injury-plagued squad and a lowly standing in the Premier League table.

Here, Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at the head-to-head record and previous meetings between Villa and West Ham.

Head-to-head record

Previous meetings: 122

Aston Villa wins: 41

Draws: 36

West Ham wins: 45

Rather unsurprisingly, Aston Villa and West Ham have represented well-matched foes over the course of history, although the Hammers are edging the head-to-head slightly, winning 45 of their 122 battles.

The Villans are no strangers to success against the Hammers, though, winning on 41 occasions, whilst the pair have shared the honours 36 times.

The first contest between the duo arrived in February 1913, when the Second City outfit enjoyed a five-goal thrashing of West Ham in the FA Cup.

Following that second-round demolition at Villa Park, there was a 10-year absence of games between the two sides before the Hammers enjoyed a five-game unbeaten run in this particular fixture between 1923 and 1925.

Upton Park witnessed the joint-largest margin of victory in this matchup back in August 1958, when braces from Vic Keeble, Malcolm Musgrove and John Dick propelled the East Londoners to a 7-2 smashing of the Villans.

Outdoing his West Ham counterparts, Villa attacker Pongo Waring bagged a quartet of goals as his side defeated the Hammers 6-1 at Villa Park in September 1930.

Recent contests between the two sides have fallen in the favour of the Birmingham-based outfit, with Villa enjoying a five-game unbeaten run across all competitions.

Indeed, Emery's troops secured safe passage into the fourth round of the FA Cup by defeating West Ham 2-1 at Villa Park in January 2025 as Graham Potter's maiden match at the helm ended in a loss.

West Ham's most recent win at Villa Park arrived near the start of the 2022-23 term, when Pablo Fornals netted the only goal of the contest to down Steven Gerrard's side.
