Liverpool vs. Villa referee revealed - with injured Hooper on VAR

Liverpool vs. Aston Villa Referee Announced

Aston Villa's upcoming match against Liverpool has been assigned a familiar refereeing pair. The match is scheduled for Saturday, as Liverpool aims to end a streak of four consecutive Premier League defeats.

Last weekend, referee Simon Hooper was injured during the 3-2 defeat at Brentford and had to be replaced at halftime by Tom Robinson. This weekend, Stuart Attwell will take charge of the match, hoping to avoid a similar fate.

Attwell, 43, has refereed 27 previous Liverpool matches, with 13 of those being wins for the Reds at Anfield. However, he was involved in controversy last season when he failed to give Lucas Bergvall a second yellow card for a late challenge.

Stuart Attwell has been appointed referee at Anfield 15 times since his first match in 2010.
