Aston Villa travel to the Vitality Stadium on Wednesday night to face Bournemouth in the fourth round of the EFL Cup.
Unai Emery's side head into the tie on the back of Saturday's 2-1 victory over Manchester City, which secured their first home league win of the 2026-27 season and lifted them to ninth in the Premier League table.
Villa are currently on a four-match winning streak across all competitions, having beaten Fenerbahce and Viking in the Champions League, either side of a league victory over Newcastle United, while they booked their place in the fourth round of the EFL Cup with a 3-1 win over Coventry City on September 16.
Last time out, Johan Manzambi returned from a brief spell on the sidelines, although several other players remain unavailable, and here, Sports Mole rounds up Villa's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Wednesday's trip to Bournemouth, who secured a 3-0 victory at Manchester United on Sunday.
