What channel is Aston Villa v Man City Premier League match on? TV coverage, live stream and kick-off time
Check out how to watch Aston Villa v Man City in the Premier League, including TV channel, radio coverage and kick-off time.
Aston Villa will look to pile the misery on struggling Manchester City when they host them in Saturday's Premier League lunchtime kick-off.
Pep Guardiola's side head to Villa Park on the back of a painful Manchester derby defeat, which saw them concede twice in two minutes as they crumbled late on against rivals Man Utd at the Etihad.
It's now one win and eight losses in Man City's last 11 games in all competitions – a run that has seen them slide nine points back in the Premier League title race, plummet down the Champions League table, and exit the Carabao Cup. They have looked like a shadow of their former selves for months and need to pull themselves out of that funk to stand a chance of turning the tide on Saturday.
Villa Park has not been a happy hunting ground for the visitors in recent years, as the Cityzens lost there last season and dropped points the year before, but Unai Emery's team are coming off the back of a disappointing defeat of their own.
A sloppy performance against Nottingham Forest last weekend, when they conceded twice after the 86th minute to lose 2-1, cost them a place in the top four and ended a run of three straight victories. Emery will demand a response from his players and welcoming a wounded Man City side is the perfect chance to bounce back.
