Aston Villa return to action in the Premier League this afternoon with a trip to East London to face West Ham United at the London Stadium, here’s our Villa predicted lineup.
Unai Emery could be inspired to make some changes to his Aston Villa squad that demolished Ajax on Thursday night.
The Villans boosted their confidence by progressing to the quarter-finals of the Europa Conference League, making the 4-0 defeat to Spurs the week prior a thing of the past.
Now, the Midlands club could make the damning defeat to Tottenham last time out even more of a memory, after Ange Postecoglou’s side failed to capitalise on the result by losing 3-0 to Fulham yesterday.
Villa can now restore their five-point lead in the race for the top four this afternoon in a game that could see Emery make a number of changes, here’s our Aston Villa predicted line-up to face West Ham.
Aston Villa predicted lineup vs West Ham
Emiliano Martinez
There will be no doubts over who starts in goal as Emi Martinez is Emery’s firm number one for his outstanding contribution this season.
Lucas Digne
After returning to the starting XI against Spurs last week, Lucas Digne could start at left-back over Alex Moreno, with the Frenchman’s ability to drive play forward a decisive factor in his selection.
