Aston Villa vs Liverpool

Whatever happens, Villa are comfortably mid-table for today. However, in the Premier League, this guarantees nothing and Emery's side will be looking to ...

4 The Premier League is about to return to Villa Park! Aston Villa winger Buendía backheels the ball to Digne who is brought down in the box. A huge chance to draw level - wasted! Darwin is played over and he brings the ball down with a lovely touch. Almost a crazy goal as Alisson jumps to collect a high ball that spun into the air. Aston Villa looked very dangerous before Liverpool silenced them with a great opener. There is a lot of frustration building... The striker was inches from meeting the cross which would have been a certain goal. Salah was lurking like a sneaky goal shark. Aston Villa are attacking again! Aston Villa are pressing to get something from this game.

Minute-by-minute report: Join Rob Smyth for updates as Unai Emery's new charges take on Jürgen Klopp's men.

He laid it off to van Dijk, who hooked a left-footed snapshot that deflected off Konsa (I think) and into the net. Digne curls a deep cross that finds McGinn unmarked at the far post, but the ball bounces awkwardly and he can’t decide whether to go at it with his head or his left foot. He rides the bounce well but then hits a first-time shot straight at Olsen. McGinn sweeps a long pass out to Digne on the left and hares towards the area. Alexander-Arnold curls a devastating free-kick from the right that bounces up towards the unmarked Nunez, eight yards out. “It’s clear that the other five in Liverpool’s front six (with Robertson and Alexander-Arnold backing them up) are in tune,” says Andy Flintoff, “but Nunez, despite all his energy, is’t quite there yet. Eventually he hits an off-balance shot that is blocked by the legs of Olsen, with the ball then ricocheting off Douglas Luiz and just wide. His cross was palmed away by Olsen to Bajcetic, who calmly dinked the ball over Olsen and rattled it through the legs of Mings on the line. oh never mind, the live pictures are back now, just in time to see Alisson make a comfortable save from Digne. “It was the season after that he really took flight and flourished. Douglas Luiz, 30 yards from goal in the inside-right channel, curled a beautiful cross to the far post, where Watkins pulled away from Matip and strained his neck muscles to plant an excellent header back across Alisson. The relentless Nunez did superbly to chase his own heavy first touch and keep the ball in play near the byline.
