Aston Villa
Manchester CityManchester City comes out on top in most scenarios (62% win rate), but Aston Villa finds a way in 18% of simulations. Manchester City frequently takes control before the break (leading at half-time in 48% of runs).
The match is simulated 50,000 times from both teams' recent statistics (goals, shots, form, absences, line-ups when announced). Each percentage is the share of simulations in which the outcome happens: these are probabilities, not certainties. Last updated 24 October at 11:51 (UK time).
