Aston Villa's hopes of a play-off place can take another big step towards confirmation on Friday afternoon when they travel to The University of Bolton Stadium to face a Bolton Wanderers side whose relegation to League One will be confirmed with defeat to Dean Smith's side.

Despite their hosts predicament, Smith is clearly not in a sympathetic, as he recalls Jack Grealish and Tyrone Mings after injury and suspension respectively kept them out of last week's 2-1 win over play-off rivals Bristol City.

Elsewhere, Tammy Abraham will lead the line for Villa again after limping out of the victory over the Robins, while John McGinn is also picked despite the fact that two more bookings before the end of the season would see him ruled out of some or all of any potential play-off campaign through suspension.

Taking to Twitter to react that team news, a number of Villa fans appeared confident of a result, although the selection of McGinn did appear to cause concern amongst other members of the Villa faithful.

Here are some of the best of those reactions.
