Confirmed lines while both teams look at the European place

Bournemouth was greeted by Aston Villa at Vitality Stadium with both teams in the European place next season.

Villa is currently the seventh in the Premier League, but only three points from the fifth placed Chelsea, the side of Unai Emery will observe the second consecutive year in the Champions League.

Visitors set up their FA Cup with their semi-final disappointment with a disappointment behind them with a 1-0 victory over Fulham last weekend and traveled to the South Coast before the games against Tottenham and Manchester United.

For cherries, confidence will be high after the first victory over Arsenal last time.

Manager Andoni Iraila has overcome another strong campaign for the hosts, who will seek the insurance of the eighth place, which could be shown enough to secure the place in the conference league for the first time.

Read in sight of two teams set up for what promises to be an exciting encounter.
