Aston Villa are showing good performances so far in the ongoing 2024-25 campaign. With four wins and one loss in the five Premier League games, they are third on the points table. Their next fixture is scheduled away against Ipswich Town this weekend.
The Villans beat Wycombe by 2-1 in their previous game in the third round of the EPL Cop. They are carrying great momentum and confidence. It will be a good chance to secure another three points and continue their good season.
4-2-3-1 Aston Villa Predicted Lineup Vs Ipswich Town
Defence
Emiliano Martinez should return between the sticks after getting a well-deserved rest. In his absence, Joe Gauci got the chance to play in the goal. Lamare Bogarde will return to his right-back position after playing as a centre-back against Wycombe. It means Kosta Nedeljkovic again warms the bench.
The centre-back duo of Pau Torres and Diego Carlos are back, sending Sil Swinkels on the bench. On the other hand, Ian Maatsen will continue as the right full-back if Lucas Digne fails to regain full fitness.
Midfield
No surprises at the midfield as Amadou Onana and Youri Tielemans take onto the field.
While Jacob Ramsey operates on the left flank, Morgan Rogers operates in the middle to build attacks as well as track back into the midfield. Aston Villa will be without the services of John McGinn, who suffered a hamstring injury against Wolves. Leon Bailey is the front runner to be deployed on the right wing.
Attack
Jhon Duran might have done nothing wrong but no doubt Unai Emery will go ahead with Ollie Watkins to lead the attacking line.
Diego Carlos and Jaden Philogene (unspecified) are confirmed absentees while Lucas Digne (knock) and Matty Cash (thigh) are doubtful for the clash. On a positive note, Tyrone Mings and Boubacar Kamara are set to make their comebacks.
