Crystal Palace are set to take on Aston Villa in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup tonight, and will hope to make it two wins from two.
Oliver Glasner’s side eased some of the pressure on their manager with a 1-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur at the weekend, and Crystal Palace now have the chance to reach the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup.
Some rotation is expected for both teams, but with Aston Villa also competing in European competition, Palace have the chance to progress against a side which could see most of their key stars rested.
So with that said, here’s a look at everything you need to know about Aston Villa vs Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup fourth round.

Ismaila Sarr was withdrawn against Spurs with a suspected injury, meaning Eddie Nketiah could return to the starting XI to face his old manager Unai Emery.
