You’ve gone early! Depends for me on the back four options to an extent, will Carlos be back?

They have some tidy forward players in Eze and Olise. Saying that I’d expect us to win this.

2-0 (Watkins….surely!, Zaniolo)

Struggling to get the Liverpool defensive shambles out of my mind, score draw 2-2.

We've conceded 2 goals at home since February and 50% of them are Harry Kane dives for a penalty. B6 is a fortress for the first time in my Villa supporting life.

Palace i see as solid mid-table so this will be an interesting benchmark. At home we should be beating them

If by saying Hilaire, you are referring to the 2-1 win against them in the championship year, that was the day i was born 😄.

He actually crossed for Paul Hinshelwood to score. February 1981.

Looking forward to this. My first Villa game in-person since Aaron Danks was the best version of himself, masterminding the 4-0 win over Brentford last October.
