  • Villa’s trip to Ajax

    Villa’s trip to Ajax in the Europa Conference League could have a huge bearing on their race for top four.

    They will travel to Amsterdam on March 7, before hosting Spurs at Villa Park three days later on Sunday March 10.

    The game against Tottenham will be at 1pm too,further minimising turnaround time for the Villains.

    The two clubs are the current favourites for finishing fourth and the games being so close together could affect Unai Emery’s team selection.

  • Liverpool’s injury worries

    Liverpool are sweating on the fitness of Mohamed Salah, Darwin Nunez and Dominik Szoboszlai ahead of Sunday’s Carabao Cup Final.

    Forwards Salah and Nunez were both injured during last Saturday’s win at Brentford and missed the midweek over Luton, while midfield man Szoboszlai has missed four matches with a hamstring injury.

    But Liverpool’s assistant boss Pep Lijnders says he hopes the trio will be fit for the Wembley clash with Chelsea.

    Trent Alexander-Arnold, Curtis Jones, Diogo Jota and Alisson are all out for at least another month.

    This comes after the Merseysiders drew Sparta Prague in the Europa League’s Last 16 with their first match set for March 7 in the Czech Republic.

    With Dom, Darwin and Mo we have to really see. We have two more days and we will check if they are there. It would be great if they can be ready.
