Aston Villa host Fulham at Villa Park on Saturday as Unai Emery's side aim to continue their positive Premier League form. Villa sit ninth in the table with 11 points after beating Manchester City 2-1 last weekend, courtesy of a brace from Nicolas Jackson. Meanwhile, Fulham occupy 15th place with eight points under Alvaro Arbeloa and enter the contest looking to overcome poor away scoring form.

Both clubs suffered midweek Carabao Cup eliminations, with Villa falling 3-0 to Bournemouth and Fulham losing 1-0 to Crystal Palace.

Fulham will be without the suspended Ryan Sessegnon, while Emile Smith Rowe faces a late fitness test ahead of the 8 pm UK kickoff.
