Aston Villa boss Unai Emery has provided our latest team news ahead of facing Brentford on Sunday, with both Youri Tielemans and Leon Bailey doubtful.

While both Tyrone Mings and Emiliano Buendia remain sidelined with long-term issues, Emery confirmed that neither Robin Olsen nor Bertrand Traore will be available for the trip to Brentford due to injuries of their own.
Given their limited involvement so far this season, that won’t necessarily be too big a concern, but key duo Tielemans and Bailey were absent from the squad that travelled to Zrinjski in midweek, and they may not be available on Sunday either.
