Aston Villa vs Everton pre-match thread

Our record against Everton since returning to the Premier league is very good, that continues on Sunday. 3-1.

Another Sunday match for no reason.

I am afraid that's what happens when you are part of the big 3.

I didn't realise it was as good as it is - last time we lost to them in the league, Rudy Gestede scored for us. Nine wins, four draws since then.

Looking at their forum, they ain't confident. Keane suspended, Gueye and Ndiaye still in Morocco, Kiernan Stately-Home injured for another month.

McNeil always seems to have his one good game of the season against us though, and you'd imagine Grealish will be up for it.

And Pickford.

Kiernan Stately-Home 

He has looked good when I have seen him, Lord knows he has to

Think Ndiaye is a good player, glad he's not available.

Kiernan Stately-Home 

They bought him from the national trust

He’s definitely one of their better players. He’s very difficult to Marquis.

Really could do with Martinez back for this one. He hasn't been great at set piece time this season but Moyes will target Bizot all day if he's there. Only selection decision is at left back really. No issue if Digne is picked but Maatsen can help get around the back of Jake O'Brien. I think we are going to be too strong for them. 3-1.

Martinez, Cash, Konsa, Torres, Maatsen, Bogarde, Tielemans, McGinn, Buendia, Rogers, Watkins.
