Burnley vs Aston Villa Lineups & Last Match
Burnley
Burnley were brought back down to earth in the opening game of the new season at home to the Premier League champions, Man City. Haaland scored twice and Rodri added a third before insult was added to injury late on when Kompany's side were reduced to 10-men following a late challenge by Zaroury that was deemed worthy of a straight red card. So, Zaroury is suspended and there are injury concerns for Beyer, Obafemi and Churlinov this weekend.
Predicted Lineup – Trafford (GK), Roberts, O'Shea, Beyer, Vitinho, Al Dakhil, Berge, Cullen, Koleosho, Foster & Amdouni
Aston Villa
Aston Villa gave their fans something to shout about on Sunday following the 5-1 thrashing they received at St James' Park a week earlier. Villa dominated Everton from start to finish, exploiting the Toffee's poor defending to score four times without reply. McGinn put the home side in front after 18-minutes and a penalty from Luiz made it 2-0 heading into the break. Villa picked up where they left off in the first half, making it 3-0 in the 51st-minute and adding a fourth through substitute Duran 15-minutes from time. Buendia, Mings, Ramsey, Dendoncker, Coutinho, Moreno and Iroegbunam are the main injury concerns for the visitors ahead of their trip to Turf Moor.
Predicted Lineup – Martínez (GK), Digne, Torres, Konsa, Cash, McGinn, Bailey, Kamara, Luiz, Watkins & Diaby
Starting Lineups

*Lineups are usually announced 1hr before kick-off
Player to Watch: Moussa Diaby
A lot of big-name teams looked at Diaby over the last few seasons with Newcastle coming close to securing his signature last summer. However, Aston Villa won the battle to sign the French attacker and the 24-year-old looks like a perfect fit for the Premier League.
After impressing at Bayer Leverkusen, Diaby made the move to the Premier League this summer, scoring on his debut against Newcastle and causing the Everton defence plenty of issues last time out. As well as his pace and finishing ability, Diaby has great awareness, popping up in areas of space in and around the opposition's area causing defences to panic as we saw against Everton.
We're backing Diaby to impress once again this weekend at Truf Moor where he is likely to find those pockets of space that cause Burnely plenty of headaches and may well lead to a goal or two for his team.
