Steven Gerrard named an unchanged Aston Villa starting line-up for the visit of Leeds United (ko 8pm).

Aston Villa: Martinez, Konsa, Digne, Mings, Cash, Ramsey, McGinn, Luiz, Watkins, Coutinho, Buendía.

Subs: Olsen, Chukwuemeka, Iroegbunam, Sanson, Young, Chrisene, Chambers, Ings, Hause.

Leeds: Meslier, Ayling, Struijk, Llorente, Dallas, Klich, Rodrigo, Raphinha, Harrison, Koch, James.

Subs: Klaesson, Forshaw, Kenneh, McKinstry, Shackleton, Gelhardt, Bate, Hjelde, Roberts.
