Premier League without VAR: Where Aston Villa sit compared to Newcastle, Spurs, Liverpool, Man Utd & others

What would the Premier League table look like without the influence of VAR this season?

Aston Villa are once again on the hunt for European football this season as they challenge at the top of the Premier League table. Unai Emery guided his side to a seventh-place finish last term, but they are in with a big shot of cracking the top four this time round.

Villa are currently in fourth place on 29 points, just one behind reigning champions Manchester City. Their latest Premier League result ended in a 2-2 draw against Bournemouth, with Leon Bailey and Ollie Watkins getting themselves on the scoresheet.

Since the 2023/24 season started, results have been altered and affected by the ever up-for-debate VAR. How many points will be gained and lost as a result of the technology at the end of the campaign? And how would the current table look without its influence? Take a look below at where Villa would sit right now compared to their rivals without VAR decisions.
