Aston Villa vs Manchester City – Premier League: Live score, lineups and updates

LIVE: Aston Villa vs Manchester City – Premier League leaders bounce back from conceding after 20 SECONDS to lead through Phil Foden and Rodri strikes… before both sides are reduced to 10 with John Stones and Matty Cash sent off

Aston Villa welcome Manchester City to Villa Park for tonight’s second instalment of Premier League football.

Following the almighty collapse of the European Super League, just 48 hours after it was announced, attentions turn back to the pitch for Pep Guardiola’s City side as they look strengthen their grip on top spot.

Tonight’s clash against Dean Smith’s men will be ideal preparation for this Sunday’s Carabao Cup final, where they will meet Tottenham at Wembley. However, Villa, who have European ambitions of their own, will be hoping to upset the odds with a home win here.
