Players to watch for

His efforts have been vital to Everton’s attacking approach, winning him praise from supporters.

Ollie Watkins : Aston Villa

Donning the Aston Villa colours, Ollie Watkins has shown himself to be a bright potential. Watkins is a quick forward with a good eye for goal.

Injury and team news

Due to injury, key players for Everton and Aston Villa will both likely face challenges. The absence of Gueye, Ashley Young and Dele Alli will affect Everton’s attacking and midfield options. Abdoulaye Doucoure is still in doubt to play against Villa. In the meantime, defensive veterans Tyrone Mings and Pau Torres, as well as goalkeeper Robin Olsen, are added to Aston Villa’s list of players out with injury. Villa’s injury difficulties are made worse by the absence of Emi Buendia and Tielemans, which limits their inventiveness in the midfield.
