Aston Villa vs Leicester City CONFIRMED lineups and open thread

Two clubs who underwent extended winless streaks face off today. But Aston Villa look to have rebounded a little and Leicester continue to plummet. Their latest exploit was a 3-1 loss to Liverpool in which they scored zero goals (thanks Simon Mignolet for having mercy on them). So this is a match that Villa should win, which as we all know means absolutely nothing.

We've got the lineups here, and we'd love it if you joined us in the comments below to help get through what promises to be another stressful day at Villa Park.
