Aston Villa vs Leeds United Preview

Aston Villa welcome Leeds United to Villa Park on Saturday for what promises to be a tightly contested Premier League affair. The hosts arrive into this one having struggled for consistency in recent weeks, their most recent outing ending in a 1-3 home defeat to Newcastle United in the FA Cup on February 14th. Prior to that, Villa had beaten Brighton & Hove Albion 1-0 at home in the league, with earlier results in the sequence including a 1-1 draw away at Bournemouth and a 0-1 home loss to Brentford. The Lions have won two and lost two of their last five, and will be eager to rediscover their best form in front of their own supporters on Saturday.

Leeds United head to Birmingham in decent nick, their most recent result a victory away at Birmingham City in the FA Cup on February 15th, where the score finished 1-1 but the Whites progressed. In the league, their previous outing was a 2-2 draw away at Chelsea on February 10th, with an earlier 3-1 home win over Nottingham Forest also in this sequence. A 0-4 home loss to Arsenal earlier in January represents the low point of this run, though Leeds have shown they are capable of troubling strong opposition on their day. With 36 total goals scored this season compared to Villa’s 37, both sides carry a threat going forward — though Leeds’ defensive record is a concern, having conceded 45 goals compared to Villa’s 27.

The head-to-head record is heavily weighted in Villa’s favour. Aston Villa have won four of the last five meetings, with the sides sharing a 0-0 draw being the only occasion Leeds avoided defeat. Most recently, Villa won 2-1 away at Elland Road in November 2025, and also claimed a 2-1 home victory in January 2023. Villa Park will be a tough venue for a Leeds side still finding their feet back in the top flight, and Saturday’s fixture shapes up as another difficult afternoon for the Whites.

Fans in the United Kingdom can catch the match on BBC Radio 5 Live, while viewers in Ireland can follow it on Premier Sports ROI 1. Supporters in India can tune in via JioHotstar, and those in Australia have the game live on Stan Sport. Kick-off is at 15:00 GMT on Saturday, 21st February 2026.
