Aston Villa vs Everton

Aston Villa welcome Everton to Villa Park on Saturday afternoon with both teams looking to put their first points on the board for the 2022-23 Premier ...

Kortney Hause is the only Aston Villa absentee, with Gerrard declaring a near-fully fit squad. So which TV channel is the game on and how can you stream it live online? Villa are aiming to bounce back from a 2-0 loss to Bournemouth on opening weekend, while the Blues suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat to Chelsea at home.

Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard will face each other for the first time as managers when Aston Villa host Everton, with both teams looking for a win.

Coutinho was nowhere near his decent self against Bournemouth and failed to convince the Aston Villa fans that he deserves continuation in the team. Yet, Steven Gerrard convinced the Aston Villa board to spend a significant sum to sign him permanently. As both teams come into this clash at the back of opening day defeats, they could tend to play with the handbrake on. Both clubs are expected to score at some point, although it does give away the feeling of a draw. The Aston Villa defence will likely remain intact unless Mings makes a dramatic recovery and participates in full training ahead of the Everton clash. Despite major defensive injuries, Everton managed to sign Conor Coady from Wolverhampton Wanderers, and the England international will take up a central role in a back three. Aston Villa are not in the best of shapes for the Villa Park audience, who will witness the team for the first time at home this season. The Everton manager will hope to take advantage of Aston Villa’s current wobbly form and ongoing off-field problems to secure three points for his side. Meanwhile, Ollie Watkins could replace Danny Ings as the leading striker, while Leon Bailey starts on the right side of the Aston Villa attack. Everton are the visiting side, and manager Frank Lampard will face his long-term adversary and former England teammate Gerrard for the first time as a manager. Other than that, Steven Gerrard is expected to ring in the changes after the dismal performance at Bournemouth. Chief among them will be in midfield, where he might bring Douglas Luiz into the mix. They were unfortunate to concede a penalty for Jorginho to score and decide the game’s outcome.

Gerrard and Lampard are iconic Premier League players but both have encountered difficulties in the dugout ahead of their first meeting as managers.

It is equally tricky to make a judgement call on the pair as managers, at least at Premier League level. James Tarkowski and Conor Coady are solid additions at the other end of the pitch, at least. They have almost identical win percentages: Gerrard has won 34.5 per cent of his 29 games in charge of Villa, while Lampard has fared fractionally better, winning 36.4 per cent of his 22 games. Coutinho has one goal and no assists to show for his last 12 appearances, while Paul McGrath, the club’s greatest ever defender, has come out to bat for Mings, who has also lost his place in the starting line-up. While neither appears to be in any imminent danger of losing their job, each will be looking to instigate improvement across the board having overseen patchy performances and generally disappointing results during their tenures. “I know Stevie is a hard worker and I’m delighted for him that he’s done so well at Rangers and [is] now at a club with the quality of Aston Villa,” chimed Lampard.

FIFA 22 predicts that Everton could struggle to break down a decent Aston Villa defence on Saturday afternoon. A through ball from John McGinn sent Watkins through on goal, and despite being just a couple yards out from goal, the striker blasted his effort off the top of the bar. The Toffees fell to a 1-0 opening day defeat against Chelsea at Goodison Park last weekend, with a penalty from Jorginho settling the contest, but Frank Lampard has strengthened his side in two key areas since then.

Everything you need to know about the match between Aston Villa and Everton at Villa Park this weekend.

Both teams will want to come out fighting after such a poor start, but Villa’s superior quality in attacking areas combined with the backing of the home crowd should see through to a hard-fought win. A hard game to predict. Tyrone Mings and Emi Buendia are available for Villa but Kortney Hause remains sidelined.

The Toffees fell to a 1-0 opening day defeat against Chelsea at Goodison Park last weekend, with a penalty from Jorginho settling the contest, but Frank Lampard has strengthened his side in two key areas since then. Salomon Rondon has served his suspension and is likely to start on Saturday, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Yerry Mina, Andre Gomes, Ben Godfrey and Andros Townsend still missing through injury. Gerrard had managed Patterson during his time as Rangers boss, moving to Aston Villa in November of last year. The Premier League halts for the World Cup in mid-November, with Everton's last game before the break against Bournemouth on November 12. On this occasion, the French full-back will be shaping up against the Toffees. The defender has begun his rehabilitation work at Finch Farm having had surgery earlier this week.

8 min: Coady puts his foot on the ball and slows things down for Everton. He nearly sends McNeil away with a raking pass. Mykolenko had a bit of his shirt, but not much, and he was outside the box anyway. Villa come again, Cash bursting into the box from the right and falling over, claiming a penalty. The pass is woefully overhit, and Gray does well just to keep the ball in play, then wins a corner. Tarkowski wins a header, and Gordon bundles the loose ball home from a couple of yards. 13 min: Mings sends a long pass down the inside-right channel for Watkins, who takes the ball down neatly, but fails to find Ings in the middle. The ball drops to Gray, six yards out, but before he can poke home, Kamara arrives to deny him and concede a corner. The ball drops to Patterson on the edge of the box. 48 min: Gray flicks a header down the left to cleverly send Mykolenko into space. 46 min: Iwobi miscontrols then brings down McGinn as he prepares to scoot towards the Everton box. 49 min: Patterson takes on Digne down the right and wins. 50 min: Villa predictably struggle to clear the set piece.

I don't know what Gerrard's got against wingers but Villa are way too narrow against a team playing with wing-backs.

All Villa so far. Not at all sure about Frank Lampard's decision to persist with Anthony Gordon up top when he has Salomon Rondon who might not be prolific but certainly is a presence and brought his Newcastle team-mates into the game well under Rafael Benitez a few years back. Big chance for Villa. McGinn's inswinging corner from the right with his left is arrowed on to Diego Carlos's head. Everton look exceptionally vulnerable when they lose the ball in midfield, lacking the legs to recover quickly. He traps it, faces up Tarkowski and tries to thread a pass through to Ings that Coady cuts out. McNeil tacks towards the left, Gray peels off into space to shoot but McNeil's pass is too heavy and Villa work it out for a corner. When Villa manipulate one of Iwobi and Davies/Doucoure out of position, their otherwise well-organised defence looks vulnerable. Davies is penalised for a foul just inside the Villa half. He recycles it infield but Everton and Iwobi in particular stop the probing. Iwobi floors McGinn 15 yards outside the Villa box. Davies slides in to win the ball and take down Watkins with his followthrough. Gordon feeds off the scraps and clouts a fizzing shot straight at Martinez who slaps it away with his palms.

Aston Villa beat Everton 2-1 at Villa Park as Steven Gerrard got the better of Frank Lampard in their first-ever managerial duel.

Everton stayed compact in what essentially became a 5-3-1-1 formation and Lampard was keen to stay solid defensively and try to hurt Villa with direct play down the wings and from set-piece situations. Gerrard got the better of Lampard this time and his Villa side did just deserve the win. In and around the box they struggled to carve out big chances but they did look very good on the break and when they got the ball forward quickly and with purpose. It was only Week 2 but the passion on the sidelines showed us just how big of a season this is for the former England teammates and friends. They had a real go late on and almost snatched a point and you can’t fault the effort of this Everton side. From the first whistle Villa came flying out of the traps but they couldn’t quite find the cutting edge.

Onana was also praised despite being dispossessed in the build-up to Villa's second goal. "That might tarnish the win if we lose someone who is that important to us. It is clear that missing that focal point of the team will affect you. Lampard is without Dominic Calvert-Lewin through injury and having opted to leave Rondon on the bench, he went into the game without an out-and-out striker. "It was a pretty even game apart from the transitional goals. "He has not been stripped of his place, he was injured last week and wasn't 100 per cent so we went a different way," the Villa boss explained. "There has not been as much focus and attention outside the building but I understand when you make a decision there is a lot of noise. The fans were fantastic and you saw the response from the team." The Argentine made a real difference after he came on and seemed to enjoy himself. There were opportunities but when Dwight McNeil needed to find the pass he overhit it and when Demarai Gray needed to control the ball inside the box it escaped him. It was a nervy finish as both Salomon Rondon and Onana came close to finding an equaliser in stoppage time. In contrast, Everton looked a little disorganised despite the arrival of Conor Coady and remain pointless this season.
