Aston Villa vs Millwall Pre-Match Thread

I'm looking for a routine three points and a rousing, swashbuckling dispatch of the unlikeable ones. I'm expecting just the three points. 3-1.

My 3-1 is turgid and uninspiring. What is yours like?

2-1 another one where we feel we could have done better but still get 3 points. Millwall upset Sheffield but I think that was against the run of play. I don't think they've won away all season - oops I wrote it down!

This might be the game to look at something a bit different.  Maybe resting Whelan or Hourihane, dropping Onomah back into a deeper role and starting Grealish could be an option for this one just to give us a bit more of a spark.  z\

A Villa win, but I'm not too confident that Samba et al will keep a clean sheet.

Good to see 100% expectating a Villa win, and no excuses.

2-0 for me.

This.

The manager seems reluctant to stray very far from the core players that have edged us into the play-off zone but I'm sure he must realise that he will not get through the whole of December without making some significant changes  -  not least the need to find a way to give Davis a break up front.

Id bring back Elmohamady, think we miss him going forward. I'd move Hutton to lb. Would definitely find space for Jack in the starting line-up. Tight win by the odd goal.

Taylor hardly deserves to be dropped, best I've seen him play for us was against Leeds.

Grealish and Lansbury for Hourihane and Onomoah I reckon. Team needs to be freshened up.

Hutton at LB means Adomah won’t get forward as much

Got a sneaking feeling we might see Jack starting too, and the use of Calum O'mindmyhair from the bench.
Anyway, a comfortable 3-1 win to us

OK. Who's predicted a Millwall win?
