429 – Aston Villa’s Rise Under Emery! 🍒 Can Bournemouth’s Momentum Continue?!

Aston Villa travel to Dean Court on Wednesday night for a Carabao Cup fourth-round showdown against an AFC Bournemouth side flying high after an incredible 3-0 demolition of Manchester United at Old Trafford!

The Cherries have now won FOUR consecutive matches without conceding a goal, and Marco Rose’s side will be determined to carry that momentum into the League Cup as they look to book their place in the quarter-finals.
