Aston Villa v Liverpool – Confirmed starting lineups – Emre Can starts

Emre Can

Emre Can has been included in Liverpool’s starting line-up which takes on Aston villa today.

The Red’s will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing draw to Sunderland last weekend.

Aston Villa picked up  a crucial win over Norwich last weekend but remain in last place with just 16 points in 25 games.

Can has kept his place in Liverpool’s starting line-up today.

Liverpool can move up to eighth place in the league with a win over Villa.

Can has provided one assist and scored one goal in 34 appearances for Liverpool this season.
