ex Brentford manager and terry will be well fired up for this game,they will expect at least a draw from this game Live on sky curse always sticks in my mind for some reason,although we've done better recently on the box
Another tough game like they all are at the moment. As you say the coaching team will want to win this one and will get the players fired up for it. I just hope that we can get the stadium somewhere near full and make as much noise as we can to make it as intimidating as when Chelski used to visit us.
I hope the players know what the fans think of the ex cheslski player whose name should never be mentioned.

A win will take us up to 7th ahead of the rest of the weekend fixtures.
In my mind we have made a lot of progress and have rapidly improved BUT this fixture is a great test of where we are at. On paper Villa should be walking this league, they had Kodjia, Jedinak and Hogan on the bench on Tuesday!
Are we a good side who will be in the top half and flirting with the top 6 OR will be just be lower mid table once again? The match tomorrow may let us know.
its a big test and if we win McClaren will be manager of the month They have a lot of good players but the table don't lie and they on paper should be top of the league I think they will come good eventually,but nobody at the moment is taking this league by storm Terrry don't want to rub it in too much if they get the 3 points he should use his common sense if he knows what is best for him They won't fancy playing us on our current form but our lack of possession in games might play into their hands

As the recent stats have shown, possession is not the whole story. QPR have managed really well against sides trying to play the ball up the pitch, so I do not fear that from Villa. I just hope that the fans present on Friday make all the Villa players feel unwelcome, rather than focusing just upon Terry! It will be another test to measure our progress, a yet more tougher test than the last game, but the team looks good and will be confident. Let's hope for an early goal to settle us!
On current form Why should we fear anyone at the moment We beat Wednesday easily and they are not a bad side Adomah is injured and he's a big rangers fan so he in a way is probably glad he ain't playing
Playing Villa will be a big test and it will interesting to see how Leistner and Lynch cope with Tammy Abraham. In recent matches we have shown a lot of belief and their seems to be a real team spirit that confidence in not losing games brings.
We have lost our last 13 matches played on a Friday dating back 4 years. That run has to end at some point I guess but it seems the Sky Curse continues if they move us to a Friday!
That what I was thinking I reallly don't feel that confident tonight The Friday sky curse is upon us How I see it beating Wednesday was a bonus as I thought we'd struggle against them Even a draw id be pleased with tonight
I don't believe in the sky curse any more, all midweek games are on sky now so by that theory we should lose everything and the curse didn't happen every time we was on sky last season either so to me the curse is over.
However, I can't decide which way to go with my prediction. Head says we should win, heart says smash 10 past them as they have that racist cheat JT managing them and stats say loss!

Agree the Sky curse seems behind us but we now need to shake off the "Friday Curse"!
Agree also that this is such a hard match to call. I just went for a Villa win so if we do lose there is some compensation! Happy to be wrong so to speak!
A draw is the best we will get in my opinion Not bad weeks work if we do so 6 points out of 3 games isn't a disaster if we lose either Villa are below us and lost midweek do we need to fear them really,we may not have their class but we have the belief in the team right now Anyone can beat anyone in this league home or away look at West Brom result in midweek and preston also against Brentford Nobody stands out like in previous seasons
