Aston Villa handed double injury boost ahead of Manchester United fixture

Aston Villa head coach Unai Emery has confirmed that summer signings Ludwig Augustinsson and Boubacar Kamara could return from recent injury layoffs for Sunday's clash with Manchester United at Villa Park.

Augustinsson, who joined the club in July on a season-long loan deal from Sevilla, has been sidelined for a month with a hamstring problem. He pulled up in the goalless draw with Leeds United at Elland Road on October 1, meaning his Premier League debut was brought to an abrupt ending.

Kamara, meanwhile, has been out since September with a knee injury. The 22-year-old, who was heavily linked with a move to United towards the end of last season, joined the club from Marseille on a free transfer and has been restricted to just eight appearances so far this term.
