There is plenty on the line when Aston Villa host Wolverhampton Wanderers in a Midlands derby at Villa Park in the day's only Premier League encounter.
For Villa, avoiding defeat would haul them out of the bottom three in the table, but they will be desperate for three points to put pressure on the relegation rivals around them.
Following their 2-1 win at Molineux earlier in the season Wolves are chasing a first Premier League double over Villa as they seek to climb above Manchester United and just two points behind Chelsea who rest in the fourth and final confirmed Champions League spot.
