Team news for Wolves encounter

Tyrone Mings is likely to remain Aston Villa’s only injury absentee ahead of Sunday’s Premier League clash against Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The centre-back has not featured since Villa’s defeat at Liverpool in early November, with Unai Emery boasting an otherwise fully-fit squad.

The Villa boss will, however, run the rule over his squad as they prepare to face Wanderers just three days after the club’s 2-1 victory over BSC Young Boys in the UEFA Europa League.

Speaking at Friday afternoon’s pre-match media conference, Emery said: “Tyrone is not available until, more or less, one month more.

“Other players, at the moment, after we played yesterday, we worked with the players who played less and they trained good.

“Other players were recovering.

“Tomorrow, we’ll train in the afternoon as well and we’ll see it.

“But hopefully no problems.”
