"We train this afternoon and he didn't train yesterday. It's very important for him how these passing hours if he is feeling better. Until the last moment I don't know if he is going to be available or not for tomorrow."
"Arsenal are the best team until now and of course the favourites to win this trophy in the Premier League because they are competing fantastically and playing fantastic. Tomorrow is really a huge test - collectively and individually. For me as a coach as well. I am delighted to have this opportunity to play tomorrow against Arsenal, with the level they have and with the level we have achieved over the last month."
"To play at Villa Park is something adding to our motivation, adding for the excited moment we have. Hopefully tomorrow we can watch a really fantastic match and every minute playing with a lot of emotions and playing well."
Emiliano Martinez's availability for Aston Villa's Saturday Premier League match against Arsenal is uncertain because of a back injury that prevented him completing the warm-up before Villa's 4-3 win at Brighton. Marco Bizot replaced Martinez in goal for that match and may start again if Martinez is unavailable. Villa sit third and can cut the gap to the league leaders to three points with a win. Arsenal are viewed as the strongest team and favourites for the title. The fixture at Villa Park is framed as a significant collective and individual test. Fitness will be assessed in training up to kickoff.
