Villa have a very busy April and are playing every 3 days this month. Bound to see a lot of changes.

Given they have next to no injuries, are on a high from Sunday and can overtake us with a win I will be stunned if they don’t play a full strength team.

This is a huge game for us to my mind. Which is a little bit annoying because the brummie buggers always seem to beat us.

However if we win we go 5 clear of them and Fulham with only 8 games left putting a top 8 finish very much in our hands and keeping us right in the thick of the hunt for European qualification(in any of the tournaments).

Lose and they go above us and we fall within the potential reach of palace who are up next.

We have to win, IMO.

Feeling very confident. The mentality is there to overcome Saturday.
Just hope the passing accuracy is better though.

Oh bludy'ell it's not time for that bludy stupid "Holt enders in the sky" bludy song again in that bludy silly adenoidal accent is it? The only more annoying song is Leeds' "Marching on together"

Sussex but not by the sea
Baleba and Gomez in midfield please, behind MOR in the 10.
Although I wouldn't be against Baleba, Gomez and Ayari in midfield with Gomez a bit more advanced but not a classic no 10. That would give us bite and be a bit unpredictable. I felt Forest overloaded us in midfield on Saturday and I think that Villa will try to do the same tonight.
I wouldn't start Welbz tonight.

Coach load of Villa fans sitting outside the Spanish Lady in Saltdean. In 25yrs living here, I don't think I've ever seen away fans turning up for pre match drinks.
