Keeps clean sheet Sunday
Aina had one shot (zero on goal) in Sunday's 0-0 draw against Fulham.
Analysis: Aina kept his fourth clean sheet of the season Sunday, all of which have come in his last nine matches. He and his fellow defenders held Fulham to just one shot on target, and Aina was a massive part of that. He set season-highs in clearances (10) and tackles won (four), and also intercepted one pass and blocked one shot in his full 90 minutes of action.
Starting against Aston Villa
Aina (hamstring) is getting the nod in Saturday's match versus Aston Villa.
Analysis: Aina is drawing the goal right away despite missing extended time because of a serious hamstring injury. Nicolo Savona drops to the bench. Aina tallied 13 crosses (one accurate), six tackles (three won) and 11 clearances in his three starts early in the season.
