Bournemouth vs Aston Villa Premier League 2022/23 Match Preview
Bournemouth’s season begins with a tough test against Aston Villa. The Cherries had a good season in the Championship last season, which earned the ticket to the Premier League.
However, many poor results lately have raised questions about Bournemouth’s readiness for the new league season.
Bournemouth manager Scott Parker did make significant changes in his team. Marcus Tavernier was, however, brought into the team to bolster the midfield.
Visitors to Aston Villa have been impressive over the last few seasons. The appointment of Seven Gerrard has mainly been beneficial for the club.
Villa was unbeaten in the Preseason, and manager Steven Gerrard hopes to improve the team’s performance last season with a positive result against the league newcomers.
The club’s most significant result in the Preseason was the 2-2 draw with Man United, where the Villans came from behind to secure a draw.
