Aston Villa XI vs Brentford – Predicted lineup and team news

The Carabao Cup provides a welcome distraction for Aston Villa on Tuesday as they seek to end their alarming goal drought.

Unai Emery has pledged to take the competition seriously. Therefore, this trip to Brentford is not just about progression, but about finding a desperately needed spark to ignite a stuttering campaign.

This match is set to be a showcase for Villa’s new loan signings. Jadon Sancho and Harvey Elliott are both expected to make their first starts for the club. Fans will be eager to see if this new-look attack can provide the creativity and clinical edge that has been sorely missing from the team’s performances so far this season.

Aston Villa team news

Unai Emery is forced to rotate his squad due to a lengthy injury list that now includes Boubacar Kamara, Amadou Onana, and Youri Tielemans. As a result, new loan signings Harvey Elliott and Jadon Sancho are expected to make their first starts.

Donyell Malen could also come in to lead the attack. In defence, Pau Torres and Ian Maatsen are set to be introduced, while Marco Bizot will likely replace Emi Martinez in goal. The midfield shortage is so severe that youngster George Hemmings could be handed his senior debut.
