Emiliano Martinez - Late call to face Everton Martinez (calf) is questionable for Sunday's match against Aston Villa, according to manager Unai Emery. "Emiliano Martinez is progressing well but tomorrow we'll assess him if he'...

Impact Martinez had to sit out their FA Cup win last weekend and looks to potentially be heading for another absence, with the goalie set to be assessed ahead of Sunday's outing. He will then be left as a late call, needing to pass some testing to be an option. The club monitors the situation closely after their longtime starter in goal has dealt with injuries all season, leaving Marco Bizot to make a fifth start this season if Martinez is out.

Ross Barkley - Needs more time Barkley (knee) is still in need of more time, according to manager Unai Emery. "[Ross] as well is ruled out. He is progressing very well. Ross will need maybe some more time."

Impact Barkley is going to remain out with his long-term knee injury, as the midfielder is not yet an option and still a few weeks away, pushing his return into February. The midfielder is yet to train since going down, appearing to need at least another two weeks before that comes. He hasn't played since the end of November, only a loss of depth for Villa.

Amadou Onana - Could train next week Onana (hamstring) is nearing a return to training, according to manager Unai Emery. "[Amadou] is not available for Sunday, he's ruled out. He is progressing very well. In a few wee...

Impact Onana is working his way back and receiving his best update since the injury, with the midfielder an option for training as soon as next week. He would likely then be set for a return come the first week of February after testing his legs, potentially ending an injury he picked up to start January.

Boubacar Kamara - Absence confirmed Kamara (knee) is out for the next few weeks as he recovers from injury, according to manager Unai Emery. "Kamara, of course, is out," said the Villa boss. "It's his knee. We're che...

Impact Kamara was already thought to be out for the next few weeks after a knee injury, and that has been confirmed by his manager, an unfortunate turn for the club. The good news is he has avoided a serious issue as first feared, going from months out to only a few weeks. They will hope for his availability come the first few weeks of February, a regular starter when fit.

Boubacar Kamara - Set for two to three months out Kamara (knee) has avoided a serious injury and is set to miss two to three weeks, according to Matt Maher of Express and Star.

Impact Kamara was set for scans following an injury in the FA Cup play, and a result has been determined, as the midfielder was dealt a knee injury that will keep him out for around three weeks. Even though he will miss time, this is a relief, as he has avoided a serious injury. He will look to return in February, with Lamare Bogarde as a possible replacement until Amadou Onana (hamstring) or Kamra return.

Tyrone Mings - Unused from bench Mings (hamstring) was unused off the bench in Sunday's 2-1 win over Tottenham.

Impact Mings was on the team sheet Sunday but would not play, going fully unused off the bench as the club pulled out the win. This is his first appearance on the team sheet since Nov. 1, a major addition to the team sheet. He will look to avoid another spell out and return to the starting role he held to begin the year, starting in five straight games to begin the season.

Pau Torres - Gets 90 in FA Cup Torres started and went the full 90 in Sunday's FA Cup win against Tottenham.

Impact Torres returned to the bench a few days prior and was healthy enough to go the entire way Sunday. He took the spot of Viktor Lindelof in the XI and that'll likely remain the case going forward. Prior to his month-long calf injury, he was a regular in the XI next to Ezri Konsa and outside of the scoreless draw against Crystal Palace, Villa had no clean sheets across the six league and UEL matches missed.

Evann Guessand - Ends international duty Guessand is heading back to England after completing his international duty with Ivory Coast at the AFCON and should be back available for Sunday's clash against Everton.

Impact Guessand was eliminated with Ivory Coast from the AFCON and will now head back to England and should be back available for Sunday's clash against the Toffees. The forward has been mainly a rotational player for the Villains and should claim back that role movingforward.

Boubacar Kamara - Set for scans Kamara is set to undergo scans on his knee, according to Matt Maher of Express and Star.

Impact Kamara had to leave the field less than 10 minutes into Saturday's match and will now hope to avoid the sidelines, with the defender set to undergo scans on his knee. This will be a major concern for the club and something it will monitor closely, potentially losing a starter if his injury is deemed more than minor. They are already without Amadou Onana for the rest of the month and could lose another defensive midfielder option if Kamara misses time, likely leaving Youri Tielemans and Lamara Bogarde to receive the starts in that spot until one of the two recovers.

Boubacar Kamara - Off after nine minutes Kamara was forced off in the ninth minute of Saturday's match against Tottenham due to an apparent injury.

Impact Kamara hit the sidelines Saturday just a few minutes into the game, going down injured in FA Cup play. This is a major concern for the club moving forward, as he is a regular starter in the midfield. With Amadou Onana also injured, the club will likely turn to Youri Tielemans and Lamara Bogarde to start in the midfield if Kamara misses time moving forward.
