3) Take it easy
With nothing to play for apart from pride, I would expect Villa to take it easy on Sunday. Although there is an argument for maintaining momentum going into the play-offs, I really don’t think the result will have any significant bearing on what will happen going forward.

Whoever plays, we don’t want any needless injuries and definitely don’t want any red cards and suspensions for the play-offs. Hopefully, one or two of the players – I’m thinking Henri Lansbury and Scott Hogan – can take the opportunity to stake their claim ahead of the final promotion push. The main thing is that we come out of Sunday’s match intact, with a full squad to choose from. I’m all a bit ‘meh’ about this one – I can’t wait for the serious business of the play-offs to begin!
COME ON YOU LIONS! (Not Millwall, obviously).
