  • PRE-MATCH
  • HEREFORD FC are hosting Aston Villa under-21s at home in a pre-season friendly.
  • Hereford had no friendly at the weekend instead holding an open training session.
  • The Bulls did beat Swindon youngsters a week today 2-0 but expect a tougher test from Villa this evening.
  • With no Andy Williams or Jason Cowley in the squad Koby Arthur has the chance to cement his place in the Bulls' side with a start tonight.
  • Aston Villa were delayed arriving at Edgar Street so it will be a 7.45pm kick-off tonight.
