Preston North End are due to take on Aston Villa at the weekend.
Callum Robinson has told Aston Villa’s official website that he is expecting to get a good reception from supporters of the Midlands club, when he comes up against them on Saturday with Preston North End.
Robinson developed through the ranks at Villa, but he left last summer to join Simon Grayson’s side.
The 21-year-old was on the look out for regular first-team football, which he felt he would receive at Preston.
And Robinson feels that Villa fans will forgive him for leaving, as he always received great support when he was playing for the Claret and Blues.
“With Villa I think they will give me a good applause, because the time I had there and when I was in and around the first team they really wanted me to do well and were by my side,” the attacker said.
Robinson made five appearances for Villa’s senior side in total, but never made a start.
The skilful winger gained most of his experience on loan spells with Preston and Bristol City.
Robinson is already playing a key role for North End this season, and he has played 12 times for Simon Grayson’s side, scoring on two occasions.
Preston are currently in 19th place in the Championship table, while Villa are in 17th position.
