Aston Villa vs Everton LIVE: Premier League latest score, goals and updates from fixture
Follow live coverage as Aston Villa face Everton in the Premier League today.
Tyrone Mings returned to the starting line-up for Aston Villa’s Premier League clash with Everton at Villa Park.
After stripping Mings of the captaincy in favour of John McGinn, Villa boss Steven Gerrard prompted raised eyebrows by leaving the England defender on the bench for the meek opening day defeat against Bournemouth.
But he was back for their first home match of the season in place of Ezri Konsa while Ollie Watkins came in for Leon Bailey.
Defender Conor Coady went straight into the Everton starting line-up after signing on loan from Wolves this week, while fellow new signing Amadou Onana was on the bench. Mason Holgate stepped in for Ben Godfrey, who broke his leg in last weekend’s defeat by Chelsea.
We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

Villa win a corner start away, as Cash gets forward down the right wing and tries to whip a cross into the box, but Iwobi gets in the way and makes a good block. The set piece comes in and Carlos meets it at the far post, but his header flies over the crossbar. Decent chance.

Watkins chases a ball into the channel and feeds Ings, who turns his man and fires home brilliantly with his left foot! 🔥

24' Disallowed! Gordon puts it home from close range following a corner, but it's ruled out for offside. Good spell from the Toffees building up to that. COYB.

15' No real efforts on goal from either side yet. Villa enjoyed a spell of pressure early on, but the Blues look to attack quickly when on the ball.
