Aston Villa will be in action against AS Roma this evening in a club friendly as the English side gears up for a tough campaign. They finished sixth last term but had given a tough time to Chelsea and Newcastle United in the race for Champions League qualification. With Europa League to fight for and a return to Europe’s elite on the agenda, Villa need to be at their very best this campaign. Opponents AS Roma too like Aston Villa, missed out on the Champions League last term and with manager Gian Piero Gasperini in charge of the club, expect them to be a serious contender for a top four finish.

Emiliano Martinez is looking for a move away from the club but will start as the no 1 for Aston Villa this evening. Ross Barkley and Andres Garcia are out injured while the likes of Alex Moreno and Leander Dendoncker are set to leave. Youri Tielemans in midfield will be the one making them tick with his slick passing range. Donyell Malen with his pace and trickery will look to create from out wide.

Paulo Dybala is not match fit and will not start for AS Roma this evening. Evan Ferguson is the likely pick for the central striker role. Manu Kone will sit deep and try and shield the backline. Daniele Ghilardi, the new signing for Roma, is all set to feature as a fullback for the team.
