Here is how we predict Aston Villa will line up against Burton Albion:
Aston Villa take on Burton Albion on Tuesday evening in their latest Championship match of the current campaign, and Villa boss Steve Bruce has some tough decisions to make when it comes to his team selection.
Villa defeated Nottingham Forest 2-1 last time out, giving them some much needed momentum after a tricky start to the season.
That win, which came courtesy of goals from Albert Adomah and Conor Hourihane, gave Villa their second consecutive league win and helped them climb further up the table as a result.
Such has been Villa’s upturn in form that if they win against Burton they could move into the play-off places, parting the storm clouds that had quickly formed over Villa Park since the summer.
Considering how well Villa played last time out, Bruce is unlikely to make any changes for the sake of it, and it could be a case of just one alteration, with Scott Hogan coming in to replace youngster Keinan Davis.
The Villa boss has already gone on record to say he needs to better manage his young players’ playing time and this is an example where he should be dropped to the bench rather than playing two games in three days.
With all that in mind here is how we expect Villa to line up against Burton on Tuesday evening:
