Former Aston Villa assistant manager Ray Wilkins says that it will be "extremely difficult" for the club to avoid relegation from the Premier League this season.

Former Aston Villa assistant manager Ray Wilkins has predicted that the West Midlands club will be relegated at the end of the season.

The Villans, who have recently appointed Remi Garde as their new manager, are rooted to the foot of the Premier League table and Wilkins has said that it will be "extremely difficult" for them to claw their way back to safety.

When asked by BT Sport whether they will stay up this season, Wilkins said: "No. I think it's extremely difficult for them at the moment.

"I would love to see them [stay up], because I had a really nice affinity with the guys, but I think where they find themselves at the moment it's going to take a hell of a lot to transfer that into massive points.

"I think it's going to be an extremely difficult season for them."

Wilkins joined Tim Sherwood at Aston Villa in the summer, but lasted just four months as he was released from his contract when Sherwood was sacked.
