Unai Emery named an unchanged starting line-up for Aston Villa’s encounter against AFC Bournemouth.

The Villa head coach opted for the same XI who played out a 1-1 draw against West Ham United last Sunday, stretching the club’s unbeaten run to three matches.

In-form frontman Ollie Watkins led the line having found the net at London Stadium to make it six goals in seven appearances.

Fit-again Diego Carlos was again named among the substitutes, with Villa’s matchday 20 also unchanged from last weekend.



Aston Villa: Martínez, Konsa, Moreno, Mings, Cash, Bailey, Luiz, Ramsey, McGinn, Buendía, Watkins.

Subs: Olsen, Sinisalo, A Young, Chambers, Durán, Digne, Traoré, Carlos.

Bournemouth: Neto, Kelly, Senesi, Stephens, Smith, Rothwell, Lerma, Ouattara, Anthony, Solanke, Billing.

Subs: Travers, Cook, Brooks, Traorè, Christie, Viña, Moore, Mepham, Semenyo.
