Aston Villa XI vs Ipswich: Starting lineup, confirmed team news and injury latest for Premier League today | OneFootball

England international missed FA Cup win over Tottenham

Aston Villa welcome back Ollie Watkins for their Premier League clash with Ipswich this afternoon.

The striker has scored 11 goals this season and attracted interest during the January transfer window, as Arsenal made a failed bid to sign Watkins.

January signings Marcus Rashford and Marco Asensio are on the bench, but Axel Disasi starts at centre-back to make his premier League debut for the club.

Pau Torres is a long-term absentee and Matty Cash joins him on the sidelines, along with Ross Barkley and Amadou Onana.

New look: Marcus Rashford is on the bench again
