I see their midfielder who has been out all season, scored twice for them last night, the first was a peach. So we'll have to watch him. And Barkley, obvs.

Not sure how close to full-strength they were against Citeh? Kruhl was in goal and he doesn't usually play.

7 of the 10 outfield players started their game last Saturday.

Playing the last 2 games with no midweek fixture has been a great help to us, the players are looking refreshed, feeling confident of 3 points, going 2 nil Villa, Ollie and SJM.

So having seen Konsa back in training this morning any sign of Pau Torres as well or is that too much to ask in one day?

Express un Star had this.

Quote
The influential centre-back was taken off at half-time during last weekend’s 4-2 win over Nottingham Forest after complaining of muscle pain and will be assessed again later in the week.

But the initial prognosis is understood to be positive, with boss Unai Emery hopeful Torres will be fit to play at Kenilworth Road as Villa look to further strengthen their position inside the Premier League top four.

Looking further down the article they don't have any sources mentioned at all, and seem to be using it as a history of Torres's injuries, along with Emery's quotes post Forest match about the precaution.

If there's any doubt at all, just stick Konsa in next to Lengelet, that should be more than good enough. Cash at right back, Digne at left back.

Exactly the back four I’d like to see for this with Torres for Lenglet vs Ajax & Spurs.

We just need to attack well, we’re better than them. They do carry a threat going forward, so they’ll probably score. We just need to score several.

I can't see us keeping a clean sheet, think it will be a case of having to outscore them. Luton are in kamikaze mode , entertaining to watch totally open at the back.
I'm going for a 2-1 Villa win.

Outscoring the opposition is always a good plan

We will batter them. They are a shitty team with a sting, like a wasp in autumn. They may sting us but the overwhelming boot will crush them before they fade away into the mire. The back garden playing Lorraine chase nick Owen Luton fools.
