Amadou Onana

Analysis: Onana was given some time to regain match fitness following a three-week absence. He replaced Victor Lindelof during the European match and could now be the main option to feature in a holding midfield spot, where he has been a key factor in Villa's recent success. The Belgian has scored two goals across 37 matches played across all competitions, while averaging 1.9 clearances and 1.9 tackles per game this campaign.

Late call for final

Onana (calf) is a late call for Wednesday's Europa League final against Freiburg, according to manager Unai Emery. "He trained yesterday, he's going to train today, and we will decide it tomorrow, if he's feeling 100% well."

Analysis: Onana is still dealing with his calf injury and will need some testing to play Wednesday, with the midfielder left as a late call for Wednesday's final. This could be a major return for the club after four games out for him, as he has been a starter when fit and played a crucial role this campaign. However, after the absence, it is unknown if he will be able to start immediately, potentially not featuring until later in the contest if he is deemed fit.
