Aston Villa vs Sunderland: Premier League preview
Unai Emery's side have responded well since their mini-blip in February and are now into a European semi-final.
Hammering Bologna 7-1 on aggregate, Morgan Rogers, Ollie Watkins and Ezri Konsa all scored in the recent 4-0 win this week, improving their chances of making Thomas Tuchel's final summer squad for England.
The Villans are unbeaten in 12 of their last 13 head-to-heads against Sunderland and will fancy their chances on home soil this weekend.
They also haven't lost a Premier League game against a newly-promoted side under Emery (W14 D5).

Aston Villa hospitality elevates the iconic Villa Park atmosphere with premium padded seats and exclusive lounge and restaurant access. Packages typically include fine dining or gourmet options, a complimentary drinks package, and matchday entertainment with Villa legends, plus the official matchday programme, ensuring a luxurious and enhanced matchday experience.
Sunderland are enjoying another solid spell and could be a tough nut to crack for the hosts, winning three of their last four Premier League games.
A 1-0 win against Tottenham last weekend moved them up to 10th in the table and compounded the Lilywhites' ongoing relegation worries in the process.
Another victory at Villa Park would help them achieve their highest top-flight points tally since 2000/01, when they mustered 57 under Peter Reid.
Now six points adrift of the top five, qualifying for Europe will be a huge coup for Regis Le Bris' side.
