Harry Redknapp shares ‘terrible’ admission about Aston Villa, predicts result v Fulham

Harry Redknapp has predicted a 1-1 draw between Aston Villa and Fulham amid a busy fixture list for Unai Emery.

The Villans return from the international break with an away clash at Craven Cottage on Saturday 19 October, beginning a run of three games in seven days.

After a draw against Manchester United, Emery will be keen to bounce back with a win but, while sharing his predictions with Bet Victor on 18 October, Redknapp remains unsure about the result against the Cottagers.

He said: “Aston Villa were poor against Manchester United in what was a terrible game. They’ve got a hectic schedule coming up, with games coming thick and fast.

“Unai Emery will of course rotate his side but it’s never easy playing every three days. I can see a draw here, 1-1.”

The Villans didn’t have the best time against the Red Devils after a busy week where plenty of energy had been exerted.

It is safe to say that Emery’s side put their all into the Bayern Munich clash which paid off with a superb and famous win at Villa Park.

With that being said, the international break arguably came at the perfect time to give players a rest, especially those who didn’t join up with their nations.

Emi Martinez faced a ban so didn’t travel to Argentina which will leave him Fresh for the visit to West London.

On the other hand, the break has handed some stars even more confidence, one being Jhon Duran who was on the scoresheet once again.

There will be hope from Emery that his side can return to Premier League action with a win, although Redknapp doesn’t seem to think so.

The ex-Tottenham boss does have a point that the fixture congestion could take its toll but if anyone can deal with these worries, it is the Villa manager.
