Aston Villa boss Unai Emery knows that he will have to make at least one change on Friday against Tottenham Hotspur to the starting XI that featured against Bournemouth on May 10 given Jacob Ramsey was sent off after receiving two yellow cards.
Morgan Rogers is certain to feature in attack alongside Marco Asensio, while John McGinn could come into the team in place of Ramsey.
With Marcus Rashford dealing with a hamstring issue, striker Ollie Watkins is the most probable candidate to lead the line.
In midfield, Youri Tielemans would have been an option but he could miss out for a few weeks due to a muscle injury.
Boubacar Kamara and Amadou Onana partnered each other in a double pivot last time out, and they can be expected to play together on Friday.
Centre-back Tyrone Mings played in defence against Bournemouth, but Emery has also shown trust in Pau Torres, so perhaps the latter will be partnered by Ezri Konsa.
Full-backs Matty Cash and Lucas Digne have frequently appeared in Emery's four-man defence, and they will be tasked with protecting goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez.
Aston Villa possible starting lineup: Martinez; Cash, Konsa, Torres, Digne; Kamara, Onana; Rogers, Asensio, McGinn; Watkins
