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.

That suggests £4.5m midfielder Ramsey will feature in Villa’s front three, alongside Emiliano Buendia and Ollie Watkins.

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

Leicester City XI: Schmeichel, Castagne, Evans, Soyuncu, Thomas, Dewsbury-Hall, Ndidi, Maddison, Lookman, Barnes, Daka

Subs: Ward, Vardy, Albrighton, Iheanacho, Perez, Choudhury, Vestergaard, Daley-Campbell, Soumare

      No don’t take the -4 after WC
      Son looks better than Ronaldo and has fixtures too.
      If you also have cash for Watkins to Antonio in a week or 2 for fixtures that makes not making these moves a better option too.

          I'm just asking because I've been mulling over the same thing and I can't see too many opportunities to captain against Salah. Without Ronaldo you can do quite a lot with your squad.

        Ideally want to do Kane to Ronaldo this GW, and then Bowen and Watkins in for a hit next GW. But doubt ill have the cash to do it. Also want to wait for UCL games and pressers. Will end up priced out probably

      Was set on selling Son to fund Ronaldo but now unsure. Which is better?

      A) Son + Toney > Bowen + Ronaldo
      B) Brownhill + Toney > Bowen + King (keep Son)

          At the same time, they’re not awful. Brighton have a lot of injuries and Leicester can’t defend. Could hold and reassess in 2 weeks

            The hype was destroy your entire team to get double chelsea defence with James and Alonso, so I felt forced to sell son to get the stupid double Chelsea defence trash.

      I have exact money for this move:
      Vardy + Gallagher --> Benteke + Raheem Sterling (-4)

      * I bought Gallagher at 5.7m, so 0.5m team value locked in him, hence the confusion.

      Current team looks:

      Ramsdale (4.0m)
      TAA | Cancelo | Rudiger | (Livramento) | (Duffy)
      Salah | Jota | Bernardo | Bowen | Gallagher
      Vardy | Antonio | (Dennis)
