Aston Villa have won important games this season against Arsenal and Manchester City, but they have struggled to produce results against struggling teams such as Sheffield United and Nottingham Forrest who are both currently in the relegation battle which is why I don't think they will sustain these good performances. This season has been very interesting so far but here are my predicted top 4 teams.
