Crystal Palace host Aston Villa at the Selhurst Park (London) in the 36th round of the Premier League and the match kicks off at 12 pm (UK) on Sunday, May 16. Read our reasons for Crystal Palace vs Aston Villa prediction and betting tips.
Crystal Palace’s Premier League clash with Aston Villa very much has the feel of an end-of-season fixture with little to play for. Neither team can move much further up the table from 13th and 11th respectively and an early kick-off won’t help to bolster the energy or enthusiasm levels. Crystal Palace have lost four of their last five in the Premier League after a 3-1 loss to Southampton in midweek. The Eagles have also failed to win four of their last five home games (W1, D2, L2) after securing safety. Meanwhile, Aston Villa drew 0-0 with Everton on Thursday which was their 15th clean sheet of the campaign. They still have an outside shot of claiming a European place, while the timely return of captain Jack Grealish will no doubt help.
There will be some regret at the way some recent Premier League games involving Crystal Palace have developed, but the team are not thinking of their holidays which is important for Roy Hodgson. Better finishing would have likely secured a positive result against Southampton during the week and it was the missed Penalty at 1-1 late in the first half which proved costly for Crystal Palace who eventually succumbed 3-1.
In the last four seasons, Crystal Palace have finished between 11th and 14th in the Premier League table and there is some consistency to that with The Eagles in 13th place with three Premier League games to play. Crystal Palace have lost 4 of their last 5 Premier League games and that will have knocked the confidence, but they have led in 3 of the last 4. The side have won 1 of their last 6 home games and have lost consecutive games at Selhurst Park to Chelsea and Man City.
As for Aston Villa, a top-half finish is still very much something they can target over the last week of the season, but the goalless draw with Everton on Thursday will feel like more dropped points. The one good news out of that game was the return of Jack Grealish and Dean Smith’s side will need the creativity of the English international to produce a strong end to the campaign. Results have left Aston Villa in 11th place, but they are only a point behind Leeds in the top half.
Dean Smith will be looking for his team to put a strong finish in the books as Aston Villa try to improve their W8-D3-L6 record away from Villa Park. Dean Smith’s Villa have displayed much-improved defensive resilience on the road, with all but one of their eight PL away wins coming ‘to nil’. Indeed, they’ve conceded just 15 away league goals, with only Man City conceding less. Villa should be favoured to get their first win at Selhurst Park since 2014.

Crystal Palace meet Aston Villa having previously lost just one of their last 12 home league games against The Villans (W6, D5), going down 0-1 in December 2014. On the other hand, Aston Villa are looking to complete their first league double over Crystal Palace since the 1980/81 season, when the Villans last won the top-flight title.
The Eagles are a surprising home underdog in our opinion and it would not be surprising if Crystal Palace earned a positive result in the early kick-off. However, they have a host of first-team squad members out of contract this summer and Roy Hodgson is wary about how committed they will be over the last few fixtures.
