It is questionable whether Amadou Onana will be there this weekend after suffering a thigh injury last weekend During the draw against Arsenal. The midfielder only played 37 minutes before he was replaced and could then not be available for West Ham’s visit.
Midfield colleague Ross Barkley is missing from Villa, but John McGinn is about to return after a thigh injury. The Scottish international could still be canceled this weekend.
Pau Torres is still in the treatment room and the departure of Diego Carlos means that Ezri Konsa and Tyrone Mings have to be used again as a central defender.
Setup by Aston Villa against West Ham (4-2-3-1): Martinez; Cash, Konsa, Mings, Digne; Kamara, Tielemans; Bailey, Rogers, Ramsey; Watkins.

Crysencio Summerville is also about to return, although the duel will come too early on Sunday, but Mikhail Antonio and Niclas Fullkrug fail.
Due to the lock of Constantinos Mavropanos, Potter also has to change his defensive series, but will probably not be able to fall back on Jean-Clair Todibo.
List of West Ham against Aston Villa (3-4-2-1): Fabianski; Wan-Bissaka, Kilman, Cresswell; Coufal, Alvarez, Rodriguez, Emerson; Paqueta, Soucek; Kudus.

Palace’s speed and strength in the counterattack.
Villa is ready to cause them similar problems with their tricky striker gang on Sunday, and even the energy spent during the week should not prevent the UNAI EMERY team from securing a third victory against the Irons this season.
Stay Ahead of the Curve!
