Comments, predictions Aston Villa vs Everton: Watkins' moment of brilliance

Latest Aston Villa vs Everton team information

Unai Emery is yet to name his final Aston Villa squad for Tuesday's Champions League opener, and is likely to rotate players due to the tight fixture list.

While the return of Jaden Philogene and Diego Carlos could strengthen the squad, Leon Bailey and Matty Cash remain absent, while Tyrone Mings is lacking fitness despite training with long-term absentee Boubacar Kamara. If Ollie Watkins, who has missed out on England through injury, is rested, Jhon Duran could be handed a start. Duran has scored an impressive goal every 96 minutes in the Premier League.

For Everton, new signing Orel Mangala could be in the squad this weekend, but Armando Broja is still out for a few weeks. Captain Seamus Coleman is injured and is doubtful for Saturday, while Jarrad Branthwaite (groin) and Nathan Patterson (hamstring) are also doubtful. The battle in midfield could be interesting as former Aston Villa midfielders Idrissa Gueye and Tim Iroegbunam take on Everton's Amadou Onana and Ross Barkley.

Latest Aston Villa vs Everton football prediction

Following their opening win over West Ham United, Aston Villa went on to lose 2-0 at home to Arsenal. However, the team ended this month's international break in positive spirits, taking six points from a possible nine in the Premier League.

Villa have made it two away wins in a row, with a 2-1 win over Leicester City thanks to goals from Amadou Onana and super-sub Jhon Duran. Duran, who has made just three Premier League appearances, has scored seven goals, including six from the bench, showing he is becoming a worthy replacement for Ollie Watkins.

Manager Unai Emery will need depth in his squad to face the challenges ahead, including domestic competitions and the Champions League. Ahead of their midweek trip to Switzerland to face Young Boys, Aston Villa will be looking for their first home win of the season. Despite a run of 15 consecutive wins at Villa Park between March and December 2023, their recent form has been less impressive, with just four wins in their last 12 home games. However, a good head-to-head record against Everton, who are winless in their last 10 meetings, suggests Villa could reverse the trend.

Everton, along with Southampton, are one of only two teams without a point after three games and sit bottom of the table after a 3-2 defeat to Bournemouth. Sean Dyche's side have lost their last four Premier League games and have not lost five in a row since 2005. With the club in crisis and John Textor's controversial takeover, Everton are looking to get their season back on track. Aston Villa have a good chance of taking advantage of Everton's defensive frailties and picking up a third win in four games, ahead of a promising European campaign.
