Aston Villa predicted lineup vs Tottenham - FA Cup | OneFootball

An expectant Villa Park awaits on Sunday as Aston Villa take on Tottenham Hotspur in the fourth round of the FA Cup.

The Villans' domestic indifference this season convinced the board that a busy January was required to appease Unai Emery, with Jhon Duran's big-money exit given them some wiggle room on the financial front to oversee a frantic end to the window.

There should be multiple fresh faces and big names in claret and blue this weekend, with Emery poised to hand debuts to several of Villa's winter arrivals.

Here's how Aston Villa could line up against Spurs in the FA Cup.

GK: Emiliano Martinez - Robin Olsen started the third-round victory over West Ham, but Emery will likely bring back his number one for Spurs' visit.

RB: Andres Garcia - Deadline Day arrival Disasi is cup-tied so won't be able to fill in for Matty Cash, who is also injured, leaving a void that Garcia may have to fill.

CB: Ezri Konsa - The England international has been a mainstay at the heart of Emery's defence and he's a shoo-in for Sunday.

CB: Boubacar Kamara - The Frenchman plays such an important role in midfield, but he was utilised in defence last weekend with Tyrone Mings and Pau Torres out. If Disasi starts at right-back, expect Kamara to continue in the backline.

LB: Lucas Digne - Ian Maatsen is yet to convince in the West Midlands, with Digne remaining Emery's firm favourite down the left flank.

CM: Youri Tielemans - The silky smooth midfield operator will be licking his lips while watching back Tottenham's 4-0 defeat at Anfield, There were gaping chasms in the middle of the park which Tielemans will ruthlessly exploit.

CM: Amadou Onana - Onana was an injury doubt heading into last weekend's short trip to Molineux, and he only came off the bench as a result. The Belgian international scored in Villa's third-round win and he should be back in the team.

RM: Donyell Malen - With Ollie Watkins out injured and Jhon Duran in Saudi Arabia, Emery may have to field an entirely new-look frontline.

AM: Morgan Rogers - A tweak from Emery could free up Rogers and allow him to dominate Spurs in transition from a central position. It'll be fascinating to see how he combines with Villa's new signings.

LM: Marcus Rashford - Here he is, the man everyone's intrigued to see in the West Midlands. Rashford hasn't played in almost two months, but Emery could empower his new arrival by entrusting him with a starting berth down the left on debut. He's scored six times in 17 appearances against Spurs.

ST: Marco Asensio - Given who else Villa signed in the January window, Asensio's arrival has gone under the radar. However, there's scope for the Spaniard to be a major hit at Villa Park.
