Match preview

Aston Villa have to win here to keep their unlikely title charge alive, after dropping five points in their last three league matches. Unai Emery's side drew 0-0 at Crystal Palace last time out in the league, but followed it up with a 2-1 win away to Spurs to eliminate them from the FA Cup. 

Everton lost their third-round FA Cup tie to Sunderland on penalties and have only won two of their last seven league matches, both against Nottingham Forest. 

Injuries, suspensions, key facts

Amadou Onana and Ross Barkley are out for Villa, while Boubacar Kamara is a doubt.

For Everton, Iliman Ndiaye and Idrissa Gueye are away with AFCON finalists Senegal. Carlos Alcaraz, Jarrad Branthwaite, Seamus Coleman, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Tim Iroegbunam are all doubts, while Michael Keane is suspended.

Morgan Rogers has seven goals and four assists in the Premier League this season. 

Former Aston Villa star Jack Grealish, now on-loan at Everton from Man City, has six assists.
