Ollie Watkins started in Aston Villa's home game against Burnley in Villa Park.

Aston Villa will try to confirm their great level in the Premier League in their home game against Burnley in the Villa Park Stadium on the twentieth day of the 2023/2024 Premier League after having been surprised by Manchester United in Old Trafford last week with a 3-2 defeat that nobody expected among the Villains.

The Birmingham team, who could equalize Liverpool on the top of the league in case of winning against Burnley, which could be really favorable for them if the Reds are surprised don’t get a good result against Newcastle this week, presented their regular 4-4-1 to face their game, with Konsa instead of Cash on the right back and the inclusion of Moussa Diaby as the main news in their starting XI, as Unai Emery will try to profit the French striker’s speed in quick counterattacks.

On their side, Burnley look for their fourth win of the season to keep on fighting for leaving the relegation zone of the Premier League, as a victory against the Villains would lead the team coached by Vincent Kompany to boost their confidence in achieving their goal.
