Curtis Jones<\/a> is available for Liverpool<\/a>’s Premier League<\/a> trip to Aston Villa<\/a> on Wednesday night after serving a one-match suspension.<\/p>\n

Jones, who was slapped with a red card<\/a> in the 2-2 Merseyside derby draw against Everton last week, is likely to be named in Liverpool’s line-up at Villa Park after missing the 2-1 victory over Wolves<\/a> on Sunday.<\/p>\n

The Reds are aiming to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League table in the clash against Unai Emery’s side, which is live on TNT Sports 2.<\/p>\n

Liverpool are currently seven points clear of second-placed Arsenal in the top-flight title race, with both sides having played 25 matches to date.<\/p>\n

In other teams news, Liverpool will again be without injured duo Cody Gakpo and Joe Gomez against ninth-placed Aston Villa.<\/p>\n

Gakpo picked up a knock against Everton – with the Dutchman set to be replaced in Liverpool’s XI by Diogo Jota or Darwin Nunez – while Gomez suffered a hamstring injury in the recent 1-0 FA Cup defeat to Plymouth.<\/p>\n

‘Joe will take quite some time,’ Liverpool head coach Arne Slot said about Gomez. ‘He is going to be out for a number of weeks because of a hamstring injury.<\/p>\n

‘It’s a big blow for Joe and for us. He tries to do everything to be with the team. <\/p>\n

‘He works really hard to come back and then the first game when he came back after two or three minutes we saw him making a sprint and now he is out for weeks again.’<\/p>\n
