The English Premier League resumes this week after a long layoff and Aston Villa will have their first chance to move out of the relegation zone since March.

Dean Smith’s side welcome Sheffield United at Villa Park on Wednesday with American striker Indiana Vassilev aiming for first-team minutes. Vassilev signed a new contract with the Birmingham club back in May and will now look to help the club fight off relegation from the top-flight. The 19-year-old has played 62 minutes in all competitions for the Villains this season, but has yet to score his first senior goal. With the team needing new blood in the offensive attack, Vassilev could be called on in the final 10 matches starting with this week’s showdown against the Blades.

Elsewhere, Aron Johannsson and Hammarby kick off Allsvenskan action with a match against Elfsborg. Romain Gall begins his loan spell with Norwegian side Stabaek while Josh Sargent and Werder Bremen face a stern test against Bayern Munich, Weston McKennie and Schalke take on Timmy Chandler and Eintracht Frankfurt in midweek Bundesliga play as well.
