Prior to that, the Villans beat Tottenham 2-1 in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/fa-cup-5th-round-kick-off-times-dates-tv-channels\/\">FA Cup<\/a> fourth round, while they also beat Scottish champions Celtic 4-2 in the Champions League three weeks back.<\/p>\n<p>Wednesday&#8217;s clash will be the second time that Aston Villa and Liverpool have met this term, with November&#8217;s reverse fixture ending 2-0 in favour of the league leaders.

By avoiding defeat, the Reds will extend their unbeaten record against Villa to 10 straight matches across all competitions.<\/p>\n<h2>Aston Villa Team News<\/h2>\n<p>The Villans are without numerous first-team players for Liverpool&#8217;s visit, with all of Pau Torres (foot), Matty Cash (unspecified), Amadou Onana (thigh), Ross Barkley (calf) and Boubacar Kamara (unspecified) ruled out.<\/p>\n<p>Leon Bailey (unspecified) and Ezri Konsa (unspecified) are also major doubts.<\/p>\n<h2>Liverpool Team News<\/h2>\n<p>As for the Reds, Joe Gomez has been ruled out for a lengthy spell due to a thigh injury, while Cody Gakpo is expected to miss out on a second successive <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/premier-league-highlights\/\">Premier League<\/a> match after suffering an ankle injury in the Merseyside derby.<\/p>\n<p>Curtis Jones, who was red carded in the aftermath of the derby, is eligible to make his return after serving a one-match ban last time out, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/arne-slot-suspension-liverpool\/\">Arne Slot<\/a> remains suspended and therefore won&#8217;t take to the dugout at Villa Park.<\/p>\n<h2>Aston Villa vs Liverpool Confirmed Lineups<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Aston Villa Confirmed Lineup:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Martinez; Garcia, Disasi, Mings, Digne; McGinn, Tielemans; Asensio, Rogers, Rashford; Watkins<\/p>\n<p><strong>Liverpool Confirmed Lineup:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Jones, Szoboszlai; Jota<\/p>\n<h2>Aston Villa vs Liverpool Prediction<\/h2>\n<p>Unsurprisingly, given the hosts&#8217; recent form in the league, the UK&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/betting-sites\/football\/\">best football betting sites<\/a> favour Liverpool to secure all three points at Villa Park at a price of around 5\/6.
