Jack Grealish was named in Aston Villa’s starting line-up for their Premier League clash at Tottenham Hotspur (ko 6pm).
The fit-again talisman, who regained the captain’s armband from the off for the club’s final away fixture of the season, made his first start since mid-Feburary having appeared off the bench as a substitute in the last two matches.
Grealish returned alongside influential defender Tyrone Mings, with the centre-back having missed last weekend’s defeat at Crystal Palace due to injury.
Dean Smith made a total of three changes from the encounter at Selhurst Park, with Marvelous Nakamba also included in his starting XI against Spurs.
Ahmed Elmohamady, Douglas Luiz and Jacob Ramsey made way and were all on the bench at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, alongside talented teenagers Jaden Philogene-Bidace and Carney Chukweumeka.
Spurs: Lloris, Tanganga, Alderweireld, Dier, Reguilón, Winks, Son, Alli, Bergwijn, Højbjerg, Kane.
Subs: Hart, Moura, Doherty, Lo Celso, Ndombele, Aurier, Lamela, Bale, Sánchez.
Aston Villa: Martinez, Targett, Mings, Konsa, Hause, McGinn, Traoré, Nakamba, Grealish, El Ghazi, Watkins.
