Premier League 2025-2026: Aston Villa-Fulham, the likely lineups

Aston Villa-Fulham is one of the two Sunday matches of the fifth day of the Premier League: kickoff for the match in Birmingham is set for 3 p.m. (here all the probable lineups of European soccer Sunday). Unai Emery’s team is still surprisingly winless in the league and occupies the third-last position in the standings; the guests, on the other hand, are coming off two encouraging home victories against Leeds and Brentford, which have lifted them up to ninth position.

Watkins is the offensive reference for Aston Villa, which deploys Rogers, Buendia and Elliott in the three-quarter. In midfield are Kamara with McGinn. Emery has won all his previous 7 with Fulham and hopes to finally get unstuck in the Premier League after his shock start.

Marco Silva responds with Muniz as central point, Wilson, King and Iwobi in support. In midfield Lukic and Berge, the full-backs will be Tete and Sessegnon.

Aston Villa-Fulham, the likely lineups
Aston Villa (4-2-3-1): Martinez; Cash, Konsa, Torres, Digne; Kamara, McGinn; Rogers, Elliott, Buendia; Watkins. All: Emery.
Fulham (4-2-3-1): Leno; Tete, Andersen, Bassey, Sessegnon; Berge, Lukic; Wilson, King, Iwobi; Muniz. All: Marco Silva.
