1 draw and 3 defeats in 4 matches they run seems difficult for Gerrard to turn things around now. I personally feel they will still take advantage of the draw in this match because indeed when they appear with a midfield that is too open it is clearly not too good for them especially in this case their defensive condition is not too good.

Yes, I know it's difficult but Aston Villa have to prove it today at home with a win. There is no reason not to win today's game because I don't think Southampton is a strong opponent either. Southamton have also not performed well in their last few match, so Aston Villa should take advantage of this. I think it's safe to think at least the game ended in a draw, but Aston Villa are expected to secure the 3 points without any problems.

Southamton and Aston Villa actually don't have a strong defense, but I think Aston Villa's chances of winning this match are quite good based on probability. But let's see what will happen.

The match ended and I was wrong in my prediction because indeed they took the lead with a narrow victory through a goal from Jacob Ramsey in the last minute of the first half.
It's interesting to see their performance in this match because they played more openly than usual and the players were braver in holding the ball and looking for movement.
This is what Aston Villa had to do from the very beginning, some of their attempted kicks proved successful for Southampton.
