Aston Villa will lock horns with Burnley at Turf Moor on Saturday afternoon, hoping to pick up a win away from home. The Clarets will be coming into the match on the back of a 2-1 win against Watford, whereas the Villans recorded a 2-0 victory over Norwich City on April 30.
Steven Gerrard will probably opt for the 4-3-3 formation with a couple of changes from the last game as Douglas Luiz looks likely to make his way back into the starting eleven.
Emiliano Martinez will continue to operate between the sticks for the upcoming away encounter. The ex-Arsenal shot-stopper will be hoping to secure a clean sheet on Saturday.
Calum Chambers will form the centre-half partnership with Tyrone Mings at the heart of Villans’ backline.
Lucas Digne is a guaranteed starter at the left-back position, whereas Matty Cash will fill in on the other flank as the right-back. The fullbacks will be expected to stay compact and keep their shape defensively.

Douglas Luiz and John McGinn will fulfil the holding midfield positions, with the former occupying a more defensive role to shield the home side’s back-four.
Jacob Ramsey will slot into the attacking midfield role. The 20-year-old midfielder would be determined to set up some clear-cut goal-scoring chances for the men upfront.
Danny Ings and Philippe Coutinho are expected to take wide positions, playing on the left and right-wing, respectively.
Ollie Watkins will lead the line for the visitors against Burnley this weekend. The Englishman will be hoping to make the most of his chances when he faces off against the Clarets defence that has conceded four goals in their last five league matches.
Emiliano Buendia could come off the bench in the second forty-five minutes of the contest if needed.
