Shown red Saturday
Ballard was shown a straight red card in the 24th minute of Saturday's match against Wolves and will be suspended for the next Premier League clash against Manchester United.
Analysis: Ballard was sent off with a straight red card in the first half of Saturday's clash against Wolves and will miss at least one match due to suspension. The defender had started 24 of his 29 Premier League appearances this season, logging consistent minutes in the back line, so his absence could be felt, with Luke O'Nien expected to step into the starting role in his place.
Picked for bench
Ballard (hamstring) is on the bench for Sunday's match against Aston Villa.
Analysis: Ballard is fit for Sunday but not healthy enough for the starting XI quite yet, as the defender starts on the bench. After 22 starts in 26 appearances this season, he will be expected to return to a starting role in the coming games, with Luke O'Nien taking his spot Sunday.
