Sunday’s Premier League action continues in Birmingham as Aston Villa take on Leicester City in Gameweek 15.

Kick-off is at 16:30 GMT.

Steven Gerrard makes two changes to his starting XI, with Ashley Young and Jacob Ramsey coming in for Matt Targett and Leon Bailey, who both picked up injuries in midweek.

As for Leicester, Jamie Vardy – who is owned by 26.8% of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers – is named as a substitute, as Patson Daka leads the line.

Kieran Dewsbury-Hall also comes in for Boubakary Soumare, who drops to the bench.

GAMEWEEK 15 LINE-UPS

Aston Villa XI: Martinez, Cash, Konsa, Mings, Young, Nakamba, McGinn, Luiz, Buendia, Ramsey, Watkins

Subs: Steer, Sanson, Tuanzebe, El Ghazi, Hause, Philogene-Bidace, Chukwuemeka, Davis, Iroegbunam

    Are you getting any United asset for their run?

    Though to decide what to do about that, CR7 costs plenty and Rashford/Sancho are expensive too.

            What does everyone think of Utd defenders for the next run of fixtures?

            Currently running a set up of

            Sanchez

            Dias - Rudi - Cancelo - TAA

            Jota - B Silva - Salah

            Dennis - Antonio - Vardy

            Bench - ESR - Williams - Bissouma

            Had a wild idea of doubling up on City defenders, but not sure about their clean sheet capability atm. Would ditching Rudi and Dias to free up some funds be a good shout?

            Madly thinking Shaw or Maguire? Someone talk me out of it

              As consistent as eachother really...

              Blanked in 1 game all season for Salah. Returned in 1 game all season for Kane.

            This GW could have been so much better - Southanpton conceding in the last second, Reg getting injured. But we move on.

              Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place, and I don't care how tough you are... it will beat you to your knees and keep you there if you let it. You, me or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit... and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done!

              Well well, all the hot assets are in midfield, but I don't think I can sell any of my current crop. Toney probably misses Watford, the only replacement I'd be interested in is Dennis, but I already own King. So save I guess? Maybe Vardy to Antonio if he plays the full game midweek?
