Aston Villa have the opportunity to move within two points of second-placed side Manchester City on Friday – as Unai Emery’s side go head-to-head with bottom-placed club Wolves at Molineux Stadium.
Villa – who have lost just one of their last five league games – are predictably huge favourites to claim their 16th victory of the season, with the Midlands club priced at a short 17/20.
Meanwhile, for cellar dwellers Wolves, a victory would ensure they avoid having the worst season in Premier League history, taking them beyond Derby’s 11-point tally from the 2007–08 campaign.
They aren’t tipped to do so however, with the hosts priced at 3/1 to upset the applecart, while a draw is valued at 5/2.

It was Villa who came away with the win in the reverse fixture in November, with a Boubacar Kamara goal helping his side secure a 1-0 triumph at home.
Elsewhere, in a separate market, there are four Price Boosts on offer for this contest courtesy of Sky Bet.
The first two boosts require Ollie Watkins to score or assist, and Tolu Arokodare to record two or more shots on target.

Watkins has registered six goal contributions across his last 10 league starts, while Arokodare has had 2+ shots on target in three of his last five starts.
Meanwhile, the other two boosts are for Morgan Rogers to commit 3+ fouls at 6/1, and each team to have 6+ shots on target at 8/1.
Rogers has committed three fouls in each of his last two games against Wolves.
