Team News

Aston Villa
Brighton
  • Jacob Ramsey continues to work on a return from injury, while Matty Cash and Jhon Duran are both suspended here.
  • James Milner and Evan Ferguson are ruled out here, while no fewer than five players will be assessed for the visitors.

Prediction

  • Aston Villa's disappointing away form continued on Boxing Day, with the defeat at Newcastle the sixth in their last seven games on the road.
  • Brighton, meanwhile, made it six matches without a Premier League win, playing out a goalless draw at home to Brentford on Friday evening.
  • Unai Emery's side were rampant 6-1 winners in this fixture last season, and should be backed to take the points again here.
