Please note that the odds mentioned below for this fixture are accurate as of the publishing time of the article. Make sure to check the latest odds before placing a bet.
1X2 Odds Betting Odds
| Aston Villa (1) | X | Liverpool (2) |
| 19/10 | 11/4 | 21/20 |
In the 1X2 football betting market, you can choose between three possible outcomes:
- 1: Home win (Aston Villa)
- X: Draw
- 2: Away win (Liverpool)
Let’s take a look at the Aston Villa vs Liverpool betting odds in the 1X2 market: the odds for Aston Villa’s win are 19/10, a draw is priced at 11/4, and Liverpool’s odds are 21/20. In fractional odds, the denominator represents the bet amount, and the numerator is the expected profit. This means if you bet £10 on Aston Villa and they win, you’ll earn £19 in profit plus your stake back. A successful £4 bet on a draw will return £11 in profit, and correctly predicting Liverpool’s win returns £21 for every £20.
Before placing your wager, consider whether the bet has short or long odds. The team that returns a small profit is said to have “short” odds, whereas teams with higher potential profits have “long” odds. Short odds pay less because they have a higher chance of hitting, whereas long odds have a lower chance of success.
Upon simplifying the fractions, bets on Aston Villa return £1.9 per pound while bets on the Reds return £1.05. Both bets have nearly similar returns, which means bookmakers rate their chances as close to equal. In this scenario, if you are not sure which team to back, pick a safer market like BTTS, Handicap, or Goal Total.
Double Chance Odds
| Villa or Draw | Villa or Liverpool | Draw or Liverpool |
| 8/13 | 1/4 | 7/20 |
The Double Chance market allows you to cover two outcomes, which gives you a better chance of winning. Here’s how it works:
- Aston Villa or Draw (1X): Loses if the Reds win.
- Aston Villa or Liverpool (12): This is a match-winner bet. It loses if the match draws.
- Draw or Liverpool (X2): This bet loses if Aston Villa wins.
Consider this market if you are a cautious bettor or are unsure which outcome to back. However, your payout in this market will be lower than 1X2 as your risk is slightly lower.
In their last 10 head-to-head matches, Liverpool won 7 games, and the remaining 3 ended in a draw. However, Aston Villa is in a much better form this season. So, use this data carefully to lower your risk when considering Aston Villa vs Liverpool odds in the Double Chance market.
Handicap Betting Odds
| Aston Villa (+0.25) | Liverpool (-0.25) |
| 5/6 | 5/6 |
| Aston Villa (+1.75) | Liverpool (-1.75) |
| 1/6 | 7/2 |
| Aston Villa (-0.75) | Liverpool (+0.75) |
| 5/2 | 4/15 |
Since both teams have a strong form this season, you may find better value with a handicap bet.
This market gives an advantage to your chosen team and a deficit to the other. The final score gets adjusted based on your chosen handicap. For example, you selected a +0.75 handicap for Liverpool, and the final score is 1–0. The adjusted score becomes 0.25–0.75, and bets on the Reds win, even though they lost the match.
The final outcome of the handicap depends on the goal margin. Here are some examples of how your bet will pay out with different handicaps:
- Villa (+0.25) / Liverpool (-0.25): Bets on Villa win in case of a draw. However, with a draw, 0.25 handicap returns only half the bet and stake amounts.
- Villa (+1.75) / Liverpool (-1.75): Villa gets a massive lead of three goals as a score of 0–3 will be adjusted to 1.75–1.25. Liverpool will need to win the match with a four-goal margin to overcome this handicap (0–4 becomes 1.75–2.25).
- Villa (-0.75) / Liverpool (+0.75): Liverpool gets a one-goal advantage as a score of 1–0 becomes 0.25–0.75. Villa will need to win with a two-goal margin (2–0 becomes 1.25–0.75).

So, if the final score looks like 2–2, the combined total becomes four, and Over 3.5 bets win. Similarly, if the final score is 1–0, the total becomes one, meaning the Under 3.5 bets win. Any score under three wins in the Under 3.5 market.
