Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa) - Since his move from Brentford in 2017, the 29-year-old's career has gone from strength-to-strength. The England International will be returning to the Brentford Community Stadium this weekend looking to get his season up and running goals wise and bag one against his former employers. Following his 16 goals in the league last season, expectations for the striker are sky high.
