In their last match of the season, Aston Villa will host Brighton at Villa Park, aiming to end the campaign on a positive note. The team will be determined to finish strong and secure a favourable result in front of their home crowd after recording a 1-1 stalemate against Liverpool in their last outing.
Unai Emery will probably opt for a 4-4-2 formation and is expected to make a single change in the starting XI for this contest. Leon Bailey will make way for Emi Bunedia as the latter looks to partner up with Ollie Watkins in a two-man strike team to lead the charge against the opposition.
4-4-2 Aston Villa Predicted XI Vs Brighton
Defence
After failing to keep a clean sheet in his last outing, Emiliano Martinez will continue to function in goal for the Villans. Tyrone Mings will resume his centre-back partnership with Ezri Konsa at the heart of Villa’s defence as they try to keep the opposition at bay throughout the game.
Matty Cash will put in a tireless display as the right-back, while Lucas Digne proves his worth on the other side as the left-back. They must defend their penalty box well and try to create decent chances going forward.
Midfield
Douglas Luiz will anchor the midfield alongside Boubacar Kamara as they focus on dominating the midfield battle and creating inviting chances for their teammates in the final third.
John McGinn will try to be productive for the West Midlands club on the right flank. Jacob Ramsey will try to give a good account of himself as a left-sided wide player.
Attack
Ollie Watkins and Emi Buendia will lead the charge against the opposition on the attacking end of the field. Both of them would be eager to find the back of the net when they lace up to face off against the opposition defenders this weekend.
Bertrand Traore will take a spot on the bench while waiting for a chance to shine in the second half.
