Team News

Aston Villa
Leeds
  • Leander Dendoncker is suspended after his red card in the 2-1 FA Cup defeat to Stevenage at the weekend, and he is joined on the sidelines by John McGinn and Diego Carlos.
  • Alex Moreno has joined from Real Betis, but he is unlikely to start against Leeds on Friday night.
  • Luis Sinisterra, Stuart Dallas and Archie Gray miss out, but Jesse Marsch is hopeful that Patrick Bamford and Adam Forshaw can overcome knocks to feature on Friday night.
  • Luke Ayling looks to be Marsch's go-to at right-back at present, and should continue here.

Prediction

  • Aston Villa were on the receiving end of an FA Cup upset at the weekend as they crashed out at the expense of League Two side Stevenage. The Villans have now won only one of their last four in all competitions.
  • Leeds put in a spirited display to come from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 with Cardiff at the weekend, but that result extended their winless run to six games in all competitions. They are unbeaten in their last three visits to Villa Park, winning two.
  • However, Villa will fancy their chances of bouncing back from their FA Cup exit with a win on Friday night.

  • Low scoring draw like the corresponding fixture

  • 2-2

  • X2, I couldn't really separate the two, I think Villa will have more chances but I favor Meslier over either Emi or Olsenn. Leeds could struggle to create at home but I felt they clicked well in their comeback during cup play.

  • Over goals goals goals

  • Villa Win.

  • 3:1 Avilla

  • summerville injured

  • Hey guys why not hel each other? Le havre has a great chance to win today, just check the stats ND let me know what you guys think.

  • Rodrigo first scorer.
