Aston Villa vs Burnley

OVER!!! How has he missed from there?? Watkins collects a square ball from Jacob Ramsey but slips over before he can turn and shoot. He still manages to get it away for Diaby, but again the first-half goalscorer can only blaze over from close range!

Moreno's cross from the byline is helped on by Watkins into the path of Diaby, who takes a touch to set himself before firing high and wide of the near post!

Neither McGinn nor Watkins can make anything out of a bouncing ball in Burnley's box, but Jacob Ramsey's on hand to pick up the scraps and win the hosts another corner.

OVER!!! Konsa escapes the defence and latches onto Bailey's throughball, cutting it back for Jacob Ramsey who arrives early and blazes over the top!

Aston Villa vs Burnley

SAVED AGAIN!!! Burnley can't clear the ball far enough and Bailey clips it back into the box for Diaby to run onto. The Frenchman cuts inside and side-foots towards the far corner, but the Burnley goalkeeper is there to make another last-ditch parry before Douglas Luiz curls the rebound wide!

SAVED!!! Moreno does well to keep the ball alive on the byline and finds Jacob Ramsey ahead of him. His cut-back is met by McGinn on the edge of the box, whose low first-time shot is well saved by the unsighted Trafford!
