Two Villa debutants to face Liverpool

Aston Villa manager Paul Lambert has handed full debuts to Jores Okore and Leandro Bacuna for the Premier League clash at home to Liverpool.

Centre-back Okore comes in for Ciaran Clark, who dropped to the bench having sustained a head injury in Wednesday's 2-1 defeat at Chelsea, while midfielder and fellow summer signing Bacuna replaced Karim El Ahmadi.
