Aston Villa Crystal Palace Football Match

Aston Villa will face Crystal Palace in their scheduled Premier League fixture on Saturday, November 23rd, 2024. Both teams are dealing with several player absences due to injuries and fitness concerns.

For Aston Villa, key players Ezri Konsa and Amadou Onana have been ruled out following short-term injuries they picked up while on international duty. Additionally, Boubacar Kamara and Jacob Ramsey are unavailable due to existing hamstring injuries. However, the team will see the return of Matty Cash and Ross Barkley, as they have recovered from their recent setbacks. Aston Villa manager Unai Emery is expected to field a 4-2-3-1 formation, with prominent players like Emiliano Martínez as goalkeeper, and Ollie Watkins leading the attack.

Crystal Palace will not be fielding Eberechi Eze, who, despite returning to training, will be given additional recovery time to manage the club’s packed match schedule. Other midfielders, Jefferson Lerma and Will Hughes, are set to return following injury and suspension, respectively. Cheick Doucoure could potentially make his second league start of the season as he has been recovering his fitness over the international break. Manager Oliver Glasner is likely to deploy a 3-4-2-1 formation, with Dean Henderson in goal and Jean-Philippe Mateta at the forefront of their offensive efforts.

In terms of recent performances, Aston Villa comes into the match having suffered losses in their previous encounters against Liverpool, Club Brugge, and Tottenham Hotspur. Their last Premier League draw was against AFC Bournemouth. Crystal Palace, on the other hand, managed to secure a win against Tottenham Hotspur and a draw against Wolverhampton Wanderers in their recent fixtures, though they also recorded losses against Fulham and Nottingham Forest.

Looking at their head-to-head record, Aston Villa and Crystal Palace have been competitive. Villa recently won a match against Palace 3-1 on the 16th of September, 2023. However, earlier this year, Crystal Palace achieved a resounding 5-0 victory over Aston Villa on May 19, 2024.

The match will take place with Tim Robinson officiating as the referee, supported by assistant referees Timothy Wood and Steven Meredith. Alex Chilowicz will be overseeing the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) tasks.
