Aston Villa have the opportunity to advance straight through to the last 16 of the UEFA Europa Conference League as they take on HSK Zrinjski Mostar on Thursday evening. Unai Emery's side have already qualified for the round of 32 following a 2-1 win over Legia Warsaw but top spot is not yet secured.
Zrinjski, who are second in the Premier League of Bosnia and Herzegovina, will only be playing for pride as they have already been knocked out of the Europa Conference League. Both sides are likely to rotate somewhat of league fixtures on Sunday and Monday, too, making for an interesting encounter.
Emery offered a rare team news clue ahead of this one, indicating that Douglas Luiz and Lucas Digne will both play due to their suspensions for the trip to Brentford. The head coach also hinted there could be plenty of rotation elsewhere in his XI.
With that in mind, here are the players we think will take on Zrinjski at Stadion pod Bijelim Brijegom.
