💨 Abstract

Aston Villa's Morgan Rogers is fit for the season opener against Newcastle United, despite a recent ankle injury. Manager Unai Emery expects a tough match, highlighting Newcastle's strong structure and individual players. Villa lost the final Champions League spot to Newcastle last season due to goal difference. Rogers had 18 goal involvements last season, while key players like Emi Martinez and Ross Barkley will miss the match for Villa. Newcastle's Alexander Isak is out, but Anthony Gordon is available.
