It looks like a draw will be the final result between Everton and Aston Villa and this is a great point for both of them because Villa in this way will remain on 3rd place that will keep them near Liverpool and City and for Everton , this point is important to avoid relegation zone but I might say 3 points were kinda vital today for them. However , game is still not over and we have 20 minutes to go but like I said , a draw might be the final result here.
If Aston Villa fails to win in this match, I wonder if it is a sign that Aston Villa is experiencing a decline in performance or not . Because ya, we know at least this moment Everton is also in the lower zone of the Premier League standings and therefore, at least on paper Aston Villa can beat Everton. But ya, regarding the draw result that might occur, of course it will be a good result for Everton, because they were able to hold Aston Villa to a draw, because Aston Villa also has a good performance this season. Therefore, about Everton which success in holding Aston Villa to a draw is at least proof that Everton deserves to stay in the Premier League and will not be relegated.
The match ended without a winner with a final score of 0-0. Everton, who has the ambition to move away from the degradation zone, held Aston Villa to a draw, who are in top form. Aston Villa dominated possession of the ball throughout the match, but Everton defense today was very difficult to explore, Everton counter attacks threatened Aston Villa goal several times. Statistically, Unai Emery fleet dominated, but none of the opportunities were converted into goals, it could be said that their strategy did not work effectively.
Aston Villa automatically failed to overtake Man City and had to be willing to sit in third place in the standings, while Everton is still in 17th position in the standings, one level above the relegation zone. I think this draw is very understandable, and I think Aston Villa still has a chance to enliven the competition at the top of the standings. To be honest, Aston Villa is still lucky to be able to stay in the top four of the standings, and a draw against Everton is not bad at all.
Arsenal is Aston Villa closest competitor at the moment, if Arteta fleet can beat Crystal Palace, then Man City, Aston Villa and Arsenal will collect the same number of points, namely 43. How fierce the competition in the top four is currently, we can imagine if Chelsea and Man United also adds to the dynamics of competition. A picture that reflects how competitive the EPL is, I'm sure next week there will be drama swapping top standings, but Liverpool is still untouched.
