How the teams line up

Confirmed line-ups arrive about an hour before kick-off.

Home

Aston Villa

A strong, well-drilled team. Villa tend to win games in front of their own fans at Villa Park by controlling midfield rather than overwhelming opponents.

Away, promoted this season

Ipswich Town

Still adjusting to the top flight, Ipswich will probably defend in numbers on the road at Villa Park and pick their moments to break.
