    • Banned:
    • Latest News: Douglas Luiz returns from a two-match ban but longer-term injury victims Jacob Ramsey (foot), Tyrone Mings (knee), Boubacar Kamara (knee) and Emi Buendia (knee) are all still sidelined and Alex Moreno (calf) and Nicolo Zaniolo (unknown) aren't ready to return. Who Luiz comes in for is the big question, with Youri Tielemans performing admirably in a deeper role last weekend. It may be that John McGInn moves forward to accommodate Luiz's return, then, with one of Leon Bailey or Moussa Diaby missing out. Bailey, with his fine home record, may have the edge. At the rear, the only real dilemma is Matty Cash v Diego Carlos. Cash got the nod in the last two competitive matches, and with the versatile Ezri Konsa excellent at centre-half in Gameweek 34, the Villa boss may be reluctant to tinker too much by recalling Carlos this weekend.

Antoine Semenyo may be added to that list, with Andoni Iraola fearing the worst about a knee injury he sustained in Gameweek 35. The latest news is awaited on Tyler Adams and Chris Mepham, who have been out recently with back spasms and a "health issue" respectively. Philip Billing and Illia Zabarnyi both missed out on the win over Brighton with illnesses, so could be back at the Emirates. Further updates to follow after the pre-match press conferences.

    • Latest News: Sean Dyche said on Thursday that Vitalii Mykolenko is “unlikely” to feature against Brentford on Saturday after hobbling out of the Merseyside derby with an ankle injury. Dyche also expressed doubts that Seamus Coleman (groin) would be available, while Beto (head), Nathan Patterson (hamstring), Lewis Dobbin (ankle) and Dele (groin) are all definitely out. Dyche is however hopeful that Dominic Calvert-Lewin will recover from illness to face the Bees, having played through it against Liverpool. Ashley Young looks set to come in for Mykolenko at full-back but you'd be surprised if the Everton boss changed too much beyond that give the manner of Wednesday's superb victory. Amadou Onana and Andre Gomes are fresh legs in the engine room if they are required, with Idrissa Gana Gueye looking particularly pooped after some hard graft against the cross-city rivals.

Fresh information is sought on Fabian Schar, too, after he was taken off against Sheffield United with "tightness in his hamstring". Further updates to follow after the pre-match press conferences.
