da cassino： It’s not been a brilliant campaign for Hull City in the Premier League and the same can be said for Aston Villa in the Championship, with the Villains having struggled to find stability following last season’s relegation.
da supremo： Sat 15th in the table and 16 points behind the play-off positions with just 12 games to go, the chances of Steve Bruce’s side securing an immediate return to the Premier League are extremely slim- but that won’t stop the Midlands outfit fighting.
The Villains should be safe from relegation, as they sit nine points ahead of the drop-zone, but Bruce’s side must ensure they keep fighting all the way until the end of the season- as they did last night with a hard-fought 2-0 victory over Bristol City.
Conor Hourihane, a January signing from Barnsley, was a crucial goal on the night as he netted the secondgoal of the game and sealed his first goal for his new side- earning praise from Hull City’s David Meyler in the process.
Hourihane will be hoping to kick-on from here as Villa have some tough games on the horizon; with their next five fixtures seeing them clash with Rotherham, Huddersfield, Sheffield Wednesday, Wigan and Norwich.
