Aston Villa travel to Liverpool looking to end a run of three consecutive defeats in all competitions.
A calamitous error from Tyrone Mings condemned Aston Villa to a 1-0 defeat at Club Brugge in midweek, a result that followed last weekend’s 4-1 loss at Tottenham. Prior to that, The Villans were eliminated from the Carabao Cup by Crystal Palace. Villa have dropped to sixth in the Premier League table but are outside the Champions League places only on goal difference.
Unai Emery’s side face a tough test this weekend against Premier League leaders Liverpool. The Reds have lost just once in 16 games across all competitions this season and thrashed German champions Bayer Leverkusen 4-0 on Tuesday night.

Amadou Onana and Jacob Ramsey will also hope to return to the starting side after dropping to the bench at Brugge. Boubacar Kamara and Leon Bailey should make way.
