67'
Digne looks to be in some discomfort. He pulls up and it looks as though Watkins stood on his calf. He is hobbling now but he looks like he will run it off.
65'
Godfrey, who has really struggled to deal with Watkins this evening, fouls the striker and Villa have a free-kick in Everton's half. Targett crosses into the box from the left flank and finds Konsa at hte back post but Everton clear their lines.
62'
Villa have a corner which Barkley sends into the box with a simple low pass to Watkins. Watkins fizzes one across and it comes off Traore but Coleman gets it away. The well-worked set-piece almost pays off!
60'
A long ball finds Richarlison but Villa clear the danger. They are struggling with Everton's direct approach. Another ball over the top from Allan finds the Brazilian and his shot is claimed by Martinez.
58'
Villa are enjoying more of the ball with Everton content to sit and try and hit on the counter-attack. It's worked quite effectively for the hosts so far although their lack of time on the ball on their home turf may concern Ancelotti a bit.
55'
BIG CHANCE! A long ball finds Richarlison... he brings it down and strikes off his left boot, but he gets it all wrong as he fires well wide. It was more questionable defending from Villa, though, as really the chance should have been snuffed out earlier by either Mings or Konsa.
