Emiliano Martinez Injury: Late call to face Everton

Martinez (calf) is questionable for Sunday's match against Aston Villa, according to manager Unai Emery. "Emiliano Martínez is progressing well but tomorrow we'll assess him if he'll be available for Sunday or not."

Martinez had to sit out their FA Cup win last weekend and looks to potentially be heading for another absence, with the goalie set to be assessed ahead of Sunday's outing. He will then be left as a late call, needing to pass some testing to be an option. The club monitors the situation closely after their longtime starter in goal has dealt with injuries all season, leaving Marco Bizot to make a fifth start this season if Martinez is out.
