Lucas Digne - Still sidelined Digne (hamstring) is out for Sunday's clash with Everton, according to manager Unai Emery."Lucas Digne is out, he's not available for Sunday,"

Impact Digne could be back as soon as a Jan. 30 clash with Newcastle United. The full-back's absence will keep Alex Moreno in the starting XI for Sunday's match. Emery was clear that while Digne was nearing a return they would be cautious with his return to the starting XI.

Impact Torres made a full return to training and could be involved Sunday.

It's not clear if he will contend for a spot in the starting XI but he could play some part.

Youri Tielemans - Could play Sunday Tielemans (undisclosed) could be an option for Sunday's clash with Everton, according to manager Unai Emery. "Youri Tielemans started working with us as well this week, he's progre...

Impact Tielemans has been out since before the new year but is making his return. He will face a fitness test Saturday and if all goes well it seems he could be an option for Sunday's clash. It's doubtful he'd get the start but an appearance off the bench doesn't appear out of the question.

Lucas Digne - Running on grass Digne (hamstring) was seen running on the grass Wednesday ahead of Sunday's trip versus Everton.

Impact Digne missed last match with a hamstring injury and could see a return Sunday after returning to the training pitch Wednesday. He's been one of the more consistent players for Aston Villa this season, recording 18 starts in 18 appearances, logging in two assists while launching 115 crosses (29 won) in that span, which is tied for fifth most in the league. However, if the defender needs more time to recover, then Alex Moreno will see another start at left back.

Pau Torres - Won't play in FA Cup Torres (ankle) won't play against Middlesbrough in the FA Cup on Saturday.

Impact Torres has bounced between being available, limited and completely unavailable over the last few matches. His next chance to feature will come against Everton on Jan. 14 once the Premier League resumes, but even if that's the case, it remains to be seen if he'll start since Diego Carlos and Clement Lenglet have been featuring at center-back or late.

Bertrand Traore - Selected by Burkina Faso Traore has been called up by Burkina Faso ahead of the 2024 AFCON, according to Sky Sports.

Impact Traore will be spending the next month away from Villa, having been selected for the 2024 AFCON by Burkina Faso. Luckily for the club, his absence shouldn't affect the squad, with the midfielder only appearing twice for a total of 10 minutes. He is currently dealing with an injury, so it will be interesting to see how much the player is used by Burkina Faso.

Impact Kamara is back in the mix for Villa, having served his three-match ban after receiving a straight red card for grabbing the neck of a player from Brentford back on Dec. 17. There is a good chance he will return to the starting XI against the Toffees, as he has only missed out on four starts all season, each of them being due to a suspension.

Emiliano Martinez - Makes three saves in win Martinez recorded three saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 3-2 victory versus Burnley. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 96th minute.

Impact Martinez conceded once in each half, but did enough with his three saves to help Aston Villa earn the home win. The goalkeeper still has only four clean sheets in the season. He will look face a tougher matchup when they visit Everton on Jan 14.
