Aston Villa Starting XI vs Fulham: Confirmed Team News and Predicted Lineup Aston Villa vs Fulham Preview: Predicted Lineup and Selection Calls Emery Balances Momentum with European Ambition Unai Emery approaches Aston Villa’s trip to Craven Cottage with both confidence and calculation. With a Europa League semi final looming, rotation might have been expected. Instead, Aston Villa look set to field a strong side against Fulham as they chase Champions League qualification.

Injuries have largely cleared, giving Aston Villa rare stability at a decisive stage. Boubacar Kamara remains sidelined with a long term knee issue, while Alysson continues to recover from a separate fitness concern. Beyond that, Emery has options, and that depth may prove decisive.

Watkins Form Central to Aston Villa Attack Ollie Watkins carries Aston Villa’s attacking threat into this fixture. His recent form has been sharp and decisive, with six goals in his last five appearances, including a brace in the 4-3 win over Sunderland. Notably, Watkins has also scored six times in nine games against Fulham, a record that underlines his reliability in this fixture.
