Makes bench against former team Coutinho is fit and in the match day squad to face Liverpool on Monday.
Pictured in training Coutinho (thigh) was pictured in training Saturday ahead of Monday's match against Liverpool.
Impact Coutinho wasn't mentioned in the team's injury report and it appears he's ready to feature again coming out of the World Cup break. Still, his last start came in October with three bench appearances being his last minutes on the pitch for Villa. He'll either have to show something else to Unai Emery or he'll continue to play off the bench.

Impact Coutinho was already a stretch to make the World Cup squad and now this injury confirms he won't be available. This injury also hurts his chances of winning over Emery in his early days as manager. He'll hope to get back in training at some point over the break, but he hadn't started in the prior four matches in which he was healthy.

Makes one tackle as sub Coutinho made one tackle (won) in 29 minutes during Saturday's 4-0 loss at Newcastle.
Impact Coutinho subbed on in the second half when they were already trailing 3-0. The midfielder failed to log any offensive stats for the second straight game. He's been in and out the squad during the season, with six starts in 12 appearances.

Fills stat sheet Coutinho had four shots (two on goal), three crosses (zero accurate), and one chance created in Sunday's 0-0 draw versus Leeds United.
Impact Coutinho was doing everything offensively, but it just wasn't enough to beat a surprisingly stout Leeds defense. The forward did only create a single chance, though he was given little support from the attack surrounding him. Coutinho has yet to get on the scoresheet in the 2022/23 campaign, though a Monday trip to Nottingham Forest could prove to be a bounce back spot for Coutinho.

Looks good in victory Coutinho took three shots (one on target), sent in five crosses (one accurate), made one interception and delivered three corners in Friday's 1-0 victory over Southampton.
Impact Coutinho helped contribute to Villa's only goal of the game by delivering a nice cross into the center of the penalty area during the 42nd minute. He subbed off in the 82nd for rest purposes, giving way to Danny Ings. He was one of the few aggressors on the pitch in an otherwise tentative contest, and his five crosses and three corners were team-highs for the evening. Nonetheless, Coutinho still has yet to record a goal or assist in league play this season (seven apps, four starts).

Lacked effectiveness in loss Coutinho had one shot off target and one blocked in Aston Villa's 2-0 defeat at Bournemouth on Saturday.
Impact Coutinho had a disappointing performance failing to get on the ball and command the midfield in the manner you would expect from a player of his quality. The attempts he made were poor and did not trouble Bournemouth. Going forward Villa manager, Steven Gerrard, will be expecting more from his star summer signing. Coutinho was subbed for striker, Cameron Archer, after 81 as Villa pushed to get on the scoresheet in the latter stages of the game.

Scores goal against City Coutinho scored a goal and created a chance in Sunday's 3-2 defeat against Manchester City. He also made a clearance, an interception and won one of one tackles in the match.
Impact Coutinho looked like he may have delivered a knockout blow to City's title hopes when he put his side up 2-0 in the second half of Sunday's game -- something his former club Liverpool would no doubt appreciate -- but it wasn't to be for his side as his opponents came from behind and won the game. Coutinho still had a solid six months in his return to England, tallying five goals and three assists in 19 Premier League appearances (16 starts) since joining Villa on-loan from Barcelona, and the 29-year-old will now be a permanent player for the club heading into next season.

Takes three shots in draw Coutinho took three shots (one on target) in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace. He also made a clearance, an interception and won two of four tackles in the match.
Impact Coutinho was a threat to Palace's goal on Sunday but it wasn't enough to pull ahead for a would-be winning goal. He hasn't been directly involved in a Premier League goal since he scored against Leeds on March 10, and he will want to end that drought Thursday against Burnley, which have conceded 50 times in 36 matches this season.

Permanently signs with Villa Coutinho has signed a permanent contract until 2026 with Aston Villa away from Barcelona.
Impact This isn't too surprising for Coutinho, who struggled for minutes at Barcelona and didn't have much of a role there since 2018/19. He opened his Villa tenure with a bang, though he's somewhat slowed down in terms of goals. In 16 appearances (14 starts), he has four goals and three assists after appearing in just 24 league matches for Barcelona the last two seasons.
