📰 Team News: Aston Villa
Boubacar Kamara (Knee injury), Kortney Hause (Knee surgery) and Tyrone Mings (Cruciate ligament tear) will not be able to play for Aston Villa manager Unai Emery.
It’s our opinion that The Villans look set to opt for a 4-4-1-1 formation this time, beginning the first half with Emiliano Martinez, Matty Cash, Ezri Konsa, Pau Torres, Lucas Digne, John McGinn, Amadou Onana, Youri Tielemans, Jacob Ramsey, Morgan Rogers and Ollie Watkins.
📋 Team News: Bournemouth
Owing to an otherwise full-strength squad, there’s only a single fitness problem for the Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola to be concerned about. Tyler Adams (Back injury) won’t be playing here.
From our viewpoint, The Cherries appear most likely to begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 formation with a starting lineup of Kepa Arrizabalaga, Adam Smith, Illia Zabarnyi, Marcos Senesi, Milos Kerkez, Lewis Cook, Ryan Christie, Antoine Semenyo, Justin Kluivert, Marcus Tavernier and Evanilson.
💡 Prediction
It seems to us that Bournemouth could really find it hard to find the back of the net against a Aston Villa outfit who seem set to really run this game.
We are anticipating a very comfortable 3-0 win for Aston Villa at the end of the 90 minutes.
