Aston Villa:Martinez, Cash, Konsa, Mings, Luiz, McGinn, Watkins, Digne, Diaby, Bailey, Kamara.

Substitutes:Olsen, Carlos, Tielemans, Torres, Chambers, Coutinho, Philogene, Archer, Kellyman.

Diaby aside, the same team as last season.

Really hope Bailey steps up here. We'll need him to if we want a win.

[Brazilian Villain]

Good to see Philogene and Kellyman on the bench, well-deserved based on pre-season.

[Ducksworthy]

Only one keeper on the bench? Is Unai feeling okay?

[VillaTim]

Emery seems to really like Bailey

[not3bad]

Apparently Diaby bought the best out of Bailey when they played together before.

[Bad English]

Well, the fact we used cutlery should have at least hinted that we weren’t from Newcastle.

On pizza?
