Aston Villa star can’t hide his excitement to face Everton at the Hill Dickinson Stadium
Ahead of Everton’s meeting with Aston Villa, one player is looking forward to playing at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
David Moyes’ side will be looking to continue Everton’s form in the Premier League with a win against Aston Villa.
Now is a better time than any to play Unai Emery’s side, who are currently out of form after a slow start.
However, Everton have a poor record against Villa, which might mean the current standing is irrelevant ahead of the game.
Nevertheless, it’s the Toffees going in as favourites, and despite this, one player from the away team can’t wait for the encounter, as an intriguing reason stands out.

It’s exciting times for the Merseyside club at the moment, as the Hill Dickinson will have its second Premier League game, and Tyrone Mings can’t wait.
“It will be nice to see the contrast of playing at Goodison and the Hill Dickinson Stadium, just to see how far the club has moved on.
“It’s great for their fans and players.”
Former Villa player Paul Merson backs Everton to beat Mings’ side, but the central defender made it clear how ‘massive’ this is for Emery’s men.
Another star in the squad is eagerly awaiting the fixture, but for a different reason than the centre-back.
Matty Cash looking forward to Jack Grealish battle in Everton vs Aston Villa
It will be another game against his former club for Jack Grealish, as the Toffees winger will see some familiar faces.
One of whom is Matty Cash, who is in the squad, as the Polish international has spoken on what he expects when he comes face to face with two of his ex-teammates.
“Everton away has always been a tough game, even at Goodison,” Cash said.
“A new stadium, it will be interesting to see what it’s like there.
“Me and Jack always have a good battle!
“Two great lads (Tim Iroegbunam and Grealish) – I wish them well, but not for the weekend.”
The 30-year-old will be battling Cash once more, and off the back of Grealish winning the Premier League player of the month, he’ll be full of confidence.
Villa’s right-back knows this will be their biggest threat, as the on-loan Man City star has the chance to continue his vibrant start.
