Aston Villa are really making hay towards the top four right now. Heading into the weekend, although they’re in seventh place, they’re just four points behind Chelsea for the fourth and final Champions League qualification slot. Of course, they’ll still have to surpass Newcastle United and Manchester City first. And up next is a visit from Nottingham Forest, who sit third in the table.
The Tricky Trees are for real this season, so this match will be a tough one to say the least.

With all that said, Villa manager Unai Emery will probably have to do some squad rotation in this match. He kind of has to, given that the Villans are still alive in three different competitions.
Lots of fixtures means lots of potential for overcooking, so perhaps we see Matty Cash, Morgan Rogers, Marcus Rashford Jacob Ramsey and Youri Tielemans go to the bench?
Go to keep those legs fresh.
