Aston Villa head into their final friendly against Braga today at 6pm BST. AVTV subscribers can watch the match live and, with the season tickets almost all delivered this week, it means that we will get to see it for free.

If you haven’t got a season ticket, or an AVTV subscription, then you can still watch the match courtesy of Bet365. In order to do so, navigate to http://www.bet365.com. Thanks to forthcoming contributor, and fellow Villa fan, Joe Ryan for the link.

The match itself should offer some insight into next season with Villa expecting to field a full strength side, as well as including the debut of Charles N’Zogbia in claret and blue. Speaking personally, I am looking forward to the debut of Charles as I have tracked him for years since his time in Le Havre. Hearing him talk yesterday, I was delighted with how he came across both in terms of personality, and in terms of his desire to want to do well for the club.

Anyway, I will update the article with more details when they are provided.

Let me know what your thoughts are. Do you think we need to win? Or are you more concerned with just getting the fitness levels improved ahead of next week?

TEAM – Given, Warnock, Dunne, Clark, Young, N’Zogbia, Petrov, Makoun, Agbonlahor, Heskey, Bent
