Aston Villa are without injured top scorer Jonathan Kodjia (broken ankle) for their final home game as they seek a win that may deny already-promoted Brighton the Championship title.
Australia international Mile Jedinak is doubtful with a groin problem.
Brighton's 11-goal striker Sam Baldock is set to return after missing seven matches with a glute injury.
But Shane Duffy (fractured metatarsal) and fellow defender Connor Goldson remain sidelined.
Villa's 19-goal striker Kodjia must now visit a specialist in Europe this week to determine the extent of the injury he suffered in last weekend's 1-0 defeat at Blackburn.
