Preview: Aston Villa Vs Crystal Palace
The hosts lost four games on the bounce before club competition was paused, while their visitors have won just once in the Premier League this season..
After 1,026 matches as a manager, Aston Villa boss Unai Emery lost four consecutive games for the first time as his ailing side ran out of steam heading towards the final international break of 2024.
A dismal run that started with last month's EFL Cup defeat to Crystal Palace has seen Villa lose their perfect record in the Champions League and slip down to ninth place in the Premier League table.
Last time out, the Birmingham club were beaten 2-0 by Liverpool at Anfield, continuing their 24-year sequence of failures away to top-two opponents.
Despite being without a win in five matches, Emery's men are still relatively well-placed in the top flight and in Europe, so they will hope to get back on track this weekend, ahead of a visit from Italian giants Juventus.
As only four points separate third from 13th in the Premier League pecking order, an upturn in form could soon have the Villans back in contention for another top-four finish.
So, having lost just one of 12 Premier League home games against Crystal Palace to date - only shipping six goals in total - history will be firmly on their side when the Eagles land at Villa Park.

About Premier League:
History
The Premier League is a private company wholly owned by its 20 Member Clubs who make up the League at any one time.
Each individual club is independent, working within the rules of football, as defined by the Premier League, The FA, UEFA and FIFA, as well as being subject to English and European law.
Each of the 20 clubs are a Shareholder in the Premier League. Consultation is at the heart of the Premier League and Shareholder meetings are the ultimate decision-making forum for Premier League policy and are held at regular intervals during the course of the season.
The Premier League AGM takes place at the close of each season, at which time the relegated clubs transfer their shares to the clubs promoted into the Premier League from the Football League Championship.
Clubs have the opportunity to propose new rules or amendments at the Shareholder meeting. Each Member Club is entitled to one vote and all rule changes and major commercial contracts require the support of at least a two-thirds vote, or 14 clubs, to be agreed.
The Premier League Rule Book, contained within the Handbook (Download: Premier League Handbook; PDF 18.2MB), serves as a contract between the League, the Member Clubs and one another, defining the structure and running of the competition.
Any serious breach of the Rule Book results in an independent three-person tribunal sitting to hear the case, ascertain guilt and set the punishment, which can range from fines to points deductions and, in extreme cases, expulsion from the competition (this has never happened in the history of the Premier League).
At the Premier League's AGM in June 2022, an Owners' Charter was agreed by Clubs. The Owners and Directors of the Member Clubs are custodians of those organizations and will uphold the spirit of the Charter's commitments.
