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

      King. The price difference isn't that much and King is guaranteed more minutes and has no AFCON.

          Ah the stats thing is a bit of cod as well when people are over reliant on them. It leads to people getting Adama Traore and Mbeumo. While ignoring the Vardy's of this world.
          I have went for King but not because of stats - he is an attacking side. On pens. nice fixtures and has no ACON.

          Joking aside though as an Arsenal fan - what do you think as happened Aubameyang. He has gone from been one of the best strikers in the PL to a shadow of himself. I would have thought since Arsenal seems more settled he would have clicked by now?

    I was just looking at the table, imagine if Everton get relegated, it would be so funny because of how much money they have spent, it probably won't happen but it is likely they will finish in the bottom half of the table.

      They have no money to spend either. They could breach FFP and get a ban if they do. So poorly managed.
