Jamaican winger Leon Bailey looks set to start ahead of Moussa Diaby for Aston Villa as they prepare to face Lille OSC in their UEFA Europa Conference League quarter-final.
The meeting of the sides has been termed as the final before the final, with Aston Villa and Lille labelled as the two favourites to win this year’s competition. Whilst Les Dogues are near full strength, Unai Emery has a raft of injuries to contend with when LOSC visit Villa Park on Thursday evening.
Matty Cash, Clement Lenglet, Tyrone Mings, Emi Buendia, Boubacar Kamara and Jacob Ramsey, whilst Callum Chambers has not been included in the Premier League side’s Conference League squad. L’Équipe understands that Aston Villa will make just one change from the side that drew 3-3 against Brentford, with Alex Moreno expected to come in for Lucas Digne at left-back.
