Starting Sunday
Ajer (ankle) is in the starting XI for Sunday's match against Aston Villa.
Analysis: Ajer isback with the club Sunday after avoiding a major injury, with the defender not only an option but in the starting XI. With seven starts over their past eight games, the defender should remain in a starting role moving forward.
Avoids major injury
Ajer (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's match against Aston Villa, according to manager Keith Andrews. "It was concerning, but they're both pretty good, really. It's nothing serious. Whether they'll be available for the weekend or not, I'm not entirely sure on both of them, but if they're not, they won't be far off. That tells you it's not too bad, thankfully, because I was pretty worried."
Analysis: Ajer looks to be on the verge of making the team Sunday after he was taken off the field early in their last outing, having already avoided a major injury. The hope will be that he is an option to play, and potentially start immediately, as he has started in six of their past seven games. He will likely face some late testing to decide if he can play, with Sepp van den Berg likely to earn the start if Ajer cannot.
