Nuno has made three changes for this evening’s game against Aston Villa. Callum Hudson-Odoi comes in for Taiwo Awoniyi, Morato for Ola Aina and Nicolas Dominguez for Danilo.
Looks like Morato lb, Elanga up front, Dominguez wide right?

Or Gibbs-White false nine ahead of a midfield 3?
Getting anything today would be a great result.
Morato can't play left back, can he? I'd have Murillo there maybe, but Toff is on the bench.
Maybe he's going 3 at the back, Williams LWB and either Yates or Anderson RWB? And then up top, Elanga who I commented last week in the cup did a dreadful job of holding the ball in extra time.
This is looking like we might be in trouble.
Apparently he played there at Benfica.
Anyway, we are truly fucked today.3 4 3 with Dominguez RWB. Gibbs White false 9.
Lots of changes for Villa
Chaos ensues.8 changes for them!
They've got PSG in the Champions League on Wednesday. It's an interesting quandary, what should you prioritize - doing well in this year's CL, or qualifying for next year's?
I expected them to start strong then rest players if they were comfortably ahead. Seems they're doing the opposite, with a strong bench if they need it.
Reidy on the Sky coverage.
My annoyance at the lack of striker in Jan is well documented and here we are. (I realise it wouldn’t have been though lack trying). I really hope we manage to offload Taiwo in the summer, but being crap and injury prone isn’t the best selling point.
Olympiakos?
Believe that if we’re both in the champions league, we can’t transfer players between us.
This doesn’t look good.
I know. The opposition having all this possession. So unlike us.
I meant the two clear chances before they scored.
