Aston Villa midfielder Conor Hourihane scored in his last appearance for Steve Bruce’s side.

Abraham and Bolasie were both brought to Villa on loan towards the end of the transfer window, to improve the attacking threat in Bruce’s side.
The pair both featured as Villa drew 1-1 with Blackburn Rovers last weekend.
And Hourihane believes that the addition of the duo has lifted Villa’s spirits, as they are so talented.
He said: “We have a bit of a boost now from Tammy (Abraham) and Yannick (Bolasie) – good quality players.
“Hopefully the way the game finished on Saturday gives everyone a boost going forward.”

Bolasie and Abraham could both be in line to start for Villa this evening against Rotherham United.
Villa are under pressure to pick up the three points in front of their own supporters, after a disappointing run of results lately.
The claret and blues are winless in their last six games across all competitions with Bruce now under serious pressure to improve his side’s form.
