Aston Villa fans have called for Callum O’Hare to be given a chance on Tuesday evening.

Villa are next in action tomorrow evening, when they take on Preston North End.

The claret and blues are likely to be without Jack Grealish and Albert Adomah in midweek, with the pair both struggling for fitness.

Villa were without the pair at the weekend, when they were beaten 2-0 by Fulham.

The likes of Josh Onomah and Birkir Bjarnason were both given chances at Craven Cottage, but they failed to take them.

And Villa fans are now eager to see O’Hare given a chance from the start against Preston.

O’Hare is regarded as one of Villa’s brightest talents, but Steve Bruce has been reluctant to use the youngster in the league so far this season.

Most of O’Hare’s chances have come in cup matches, when he has generally impressed.

If Villa can beat Preston, they could move up into second place in the Championship table again.
