It will be a huge clash for Villa, in what could be a big week for the club.
Wolves will be looking for revenge for Villa’s win in the Championship two seasons ago, as both sides look to progress in the League Cup.
Success in the cups won’t be on the top of Villa’s agendas this season, but I don’t think any fans would mind if they were to reach the final.
