Leon Bailey - Takes four shots in loss Bailey took four shots (two on target) and created two chances in Saturday's 4-2 defeat against Leicester City.
Impact Bailey's fine form since the World Cup break continued on Saturday, as he's averaging three shots (one on target) and one chance created across his last six Premier league appearances. Manager Unai Emery seems to prefer a 4-4-2 with Bailey alongside Ollie Watkins up front.

Emiliano Martinez - Concedes four goals to Leicester Martinez made a save but conceded four goals in Saturday's 4-2 defeat against Leicester City.
Impact Martinez was beaten by strikes from James Maddison, Kelechi Iheanacho, Tete and Dennis Praet as he lost in the Premier League for the first time since October on Saturday. It won't get any easier for him next weekend against top scorers Manchester City, which have put away 53 goals in 20 matches this season.

Ollie Watkins - Scores goal against Leicester Watkins took four shots and scored a goal in Saturday's 4-2 defeat against Leicester City. He also made a clearance, an interception and created a chance in the match.
Impact Watkins opened the scoring Saturday for a second consecutive game, and he's up to three goals in six Premier League appearances since the World Cup break after previously netting just twice in 14 matches. Villa manager Unai Emery seems to prefer a 4-4-2 lineup with Watkins and Leon Bailey as the starting forwards.

Lucas Digne - Starting at left back Digne is fit and in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Leicester.
Impact Digne returns from a shoulder injury to take up a role in Villa's back four. The fullback has a goal and no assists in 15 appearances, but has shown customary attacking upside with 56 crosses and 12 chances created.

John McGinn - On bench against Leicester McGinn is fit and in the match day squad for Saturday's match against Leicester.
Impact McGinn returns from a hamstring injury in time to take up a role on the bench. The midfielder has just one goal involvement through 17 appearances on the season.

Lucas Digne - Could play Saturday Digne (shoulder) is in contention for Saturday's clash with Leicester City. Manager Unai Emery told reporters, "Lucas Digne has trained as normal with us this week."
Impact Digne looks set to return after just one match on the shelf and figures to reclaim his place in the starting XI at left-back. With Digne fit, Alex Moreno will likely be relegated back to a bench role. For his part, Digne registered one goal on three shots (three on target), 19 crosses (six accurate) and two corners in his last six appearances.

Diego Carlos - Close to training with squad Carlos (Achilles) is expected to begin training with the first team soon but isn't ready to return to action. Manager Unai Emery told reporters Friday, "Diego Carlos is close to st...
Impact Carlos has been sidelined since mid-August but could be back on the training pitch sooner rather than later. Once cleared to return to the pitch, the defender will almost certainly be eased back into action with an appearance or two off the bench given his lengthy stint on the sidelines.

John McGinn - Pictured in training McGinn (hamstring) was pictured in training Wednesday ahead of Saturday's match against Leicester City.
Impact McGinn was projected to return this week and it looks like he's on track, though an immediate return to the starting XI Saturday seems like a long shot. He's been out a month with a hamstring injury and shouldn't be pushed too hard. If he's not ready to start, Jacob Ramsey will likely remain in the XI against Leicester.

Bertrand Traore - Back with Villa Traore is back with Aston Villa after ending his loan at Istanbul Basakeshir early.
Impact Traore is nursing a knee injury, but he figures to be ready in a couple weeks. He appeared in 18 matches for Istanbul and it seems like Unai Emery wants to work with the winger and see what he can provide for Villa. Under Steven Gerrard, he had lost any kind of role.

Lucas Digne - Back in training Digne was pictured in training Wednesday after missing this past weekend with a shoulder injury.
Impact Digne still has more than a week to recover and get back his fitness, as Villa were already kicked out of the FA Cup. As for Digne, his guaranteed spot in the starting XI may no longer be there following the addition of Alex Moreno, who adds a bit more in the attack. Moreno played well in his debut start and it wouldn't be surprising if he remained in the starting XI for the Feb. 4 contest.
