Really tough one to call. We need Moraes to start getting involved more and test their shaky defence.

From 1975:
Aston Villa, Canary Killa

I think we gonna win this .

Id like to see Luiz and Marvelous in there in a 4 2 3 1   pushing JG further up.

1-2   Villa         SJM    Trez 
This has to be the set-up, for me.

Both sides have been scoring a few this season but also conceding a few. My head says 2-2, my gut feeling is
0-0.

No idea what to make of this one...

Looking forward to it though, even though it’s a ballache of a trip down there and my favourite place to eat breakfast has changed its menu to no longer offer fryups.   :-[

Longest away of the season for me. In light traffic it's only 4:25. At least its Saturday 3pm, not the god awful noon or evening kick offs we've had the past 3 years.

Norwich have 10 players on the injury list. Surely a good time to play them?

Would consider starting Davis for this one and take Wesley out of the firing line.  Douglas for Hourihane and Trezeguet for El Ghazi probably be the only other changes I would make.

Same starting eleven as last weekend for me. We played some good stuff, and should have created more chances than we did. Hopefully this time we'll not only make them, but put them away too. Let the ball do a bit more work and hopefully not tire as much as early.

3-0 us, Wes, Grealish, Engels.

This is massive.  A game we have to win. People will moan bigger if we don't. It'll get louder.

It’s far too soon for this to be a “must win” but we need to start winning winnable games, however Norwich will be thinking the exact same when they look at their fixture list to see where their next 3pts will be coming from.

This could go either way...I hit Norwich win by mistake in the poll, and I’m going for 1-3 Villa.
