- Nottingham Forest Vs. Aston Villa – Sat, Dec 14th 2024, 17:30
John Durán and Tyrone Mings are back in Aston Villa’s starting XI for Saturday evening’s Premier League trip to Nottingham Forest (ko 5.30pm).
Unai Emery makes two changes to the line-up that dramatically beat RB Leipzig in the Champions League on Tuesday, as Durán starts back-to-back Premier League matches, and Mings makes his second league start of the campaign.
Ollie Watkins is fit enough for a place on the bench, having been withdrawn at half-time on Tuesday, while Youri Tielemans is set to make his 200th Premier League appearance.
Here is Villa’s team news in full…
Aston Villa: Martínez; Konsa, Diego Carlos, Mings, Digne; Kamara, Tielemans; Cash, Rogers, McGinn (c); Durán.
Villa Substitutes: Olsen, Pau Torres, Bogarde, Nedeljković, Maatsen, Onana, Barkley, Buendía, Watkins.
