Into the last 10 minutes here. City could do with a second to take the edge off, Mateo Kovacic having a low shot easily held by Wes Foderingham.

Big chance!

Jay Rodriguez, who came on a few minutes ago, is found in space and allowed to turn on the edge of the Villa box. His shot is poor, though, and clears the bar.

That would have set up a big finish.

I'm sure there were some Olés there from the Sheffield United fans, it was only about 10 passes but they clearly enjoyed it!

Great pace from Benie Traore to jag inside and get the crowd on their feet but unfortunately he's running at Kyle Walker who is also rapid. The Blades are having a right go now though!

A first bit of pressure from Burnley in a long old while.

It ends limply with a Johann Berg Gudmundsson cross straight to Robin Olsen.

The longer this game goes, the more nervy City will get. We've seen Sheffield United are not afraid to put it into the box.

Nicolo Zaniolo almost punishes Burnley for dallying on the ball. He robs Connor Roberts but then hammers a shot just over the bar.

Villa suddenly have quality options all over the squad.

Another of the Wilder/Knill legends is on for the hosts, Chris Basham replaces Oliver Norwood.

There's a lengthy four-man discussion about this Manchester City free-kick, I was expecting something from the Alan Knill playbook but it's just a straightforward shot on goal from Julian Alvarez.

Hits it well, and it's saved well too by Wes Foderingham.

Almost a hat-trick for Matty Cash!

He is found on an angle by Nicolo Zaniolo, who had earlier nutmegged a marker, but fires his drive just over the goal.

Real chance! Oli McBurnie has made a difference, he wins a corner well and then from the set piece he has a free header which he can only guide shy of the near post.

You may not get a better chance than that against Manchester City. They break, Vini Souza hauls down Bernardo Silva and has to be booked.

Burnley look finished. There are a lot of tired legs and minds.

Ollie Watkins lines up an effort from the edge of the box but his shot is blocked.

Villa managing the game well now with around 12 minutes to go. They're keeping hold of the ball and Burnley at arm's length.

When Sheffield United get a chance, it doesn't matter how it comes about, they need to get it into the box.

They need to get the ball into McBurnie and Hamer.

Strike! As long as it remains only one goal then the result is in doubt and a long Sheffield United throw brings them a rare chance. Ederson comes to punch it out, Gus Hamer connects with it superbly but Ruben Dias makes a brave, and a brilliant block.

Nicolo Zaniolo should have a debut goal for Villa.

The visitors break and the Italian is given chance to run and run and run to within 10 yards of the target. He delays his shot a fraction too long, though, allowing James Trafford to come out and save.

Changes afoot for the hosts. On come Oli McBurnie and Jayden Bogle for William Osula and George Baldock. McBurnie instantly gets into Jack Grealish and leaves the England man in a heap.
