Aston Villa host Fulham under the lights at Villa Park tonight, as they continue their charge up the Premier League table.

Unai Emery has led a complete turnaround at Villa, which has seen his side become the third best team in the league since taking over in November, with only title-challengers Arsenal and Manchester City with a better points total.

To date, Emery has won 11 league games, drawn two and lost just four, and Villa are currently unbeaten in nine.

A win against Fulham tonight will put Villa into fifth-place, one point above Tottenham Hotspur who face Manchester United on Thursday night.

Villa host a Fulham team comfortably in mid-table, but Emery's side will be confident of picking up all three points, having won four in a row at Villa Park.
