Aston Villa v Derby County - Match Thread

Do I get a prize for being just one player out on my team prediction?

If Hourihane was fit (or is he suspended), I'd probably have been spot on

5-1-1-2-1?! That's the thing with Bruce, he knows what he's doing at this level...

[UK Redsox]

Feck, it's started raining now

[remy]

4-3-3 (I think) or 4-5-1 ?

Our luck has to change sometime surely?

I'd have gone with Bree over Hutton and possibly Grealish for Green but not far off our best team. Come on you Villa boys!

I take it Bent is playing?

Where is Hourihane? Don't tell me, another new signing injured?

I like Bree but I think Hutton should keep his place after being our best player in the last match.

[cdbearsfan]

Have only made it as far as the Small Heath ground and traffic a nightmare. I think I'm going to miss the first two Derby goals at this rate.

Yes

Whenever I see Hutton in the line up my heart sinks.

Has anyone not got money on him to score?
