Significant setback for Aston Villa as important players will be unavailable for the Ajax match

Aston Villa have been handed another injury blow ahead of their Europa Conference League clash with Ajax as Unai Emery has provided an update on the fitness of Jacob Ramsey.

 

Aston Villa are preparing to battle Ajax on Thursday night in what is set to be a blockbuster occasion at Villa Park.

The Villans will be hoping to put on a show for their home supporters, who were left deeply disappointed by what they witnessed on Sunday in the Premier League.

 

After losing 4-0 to Tottenham to dent their top-four hopes, Villa can make the defeat a thing of the past by booking a place in a European quarter-final however, they must get past Ajax first.

The second leg is guaranteed to provide more excitement than the first meeting between the two sides, who played out a 0-0 draw in Amsterdam last week.

 

It’s all to play for at Villa Park due to the scoreline, with one of the highlights of the first leg being the dismissal of Ezri Konsa.

As a result of receiving two yellow cards, the Englishman will be suspended for the return fixture in Birmingham and he won’t be the only key absence for the hosts.

 

Long-term absentees Boubacar Kamara, Emi Buendia and Tyrone Mings will of course be out of contention, with Unai Emery providing a concerning update on the fitness of Jacob Ramsey in the pre-match press conference.
