Relegation-threatened Aston Villa take on Crystal Palace in the Premier League this afternoon.

Dean Smith’s side suffered a significant blow yesterday as Watford’s dramatic victory over Newcastle left Villa seven points adrift of safety.

The Villains have lost their last three games in succession and know anything less than a victory today will all but confirm their fate.

Palace, meanwhile, are enjoying a fine season and were bitterly unlucky not to peg back Chelsea last time out. A top-10 finish is still just about in sight for the Eagles.
