The extent of the Covid-19 outbreak at Aston Villa is unclear ahead of their scheduled fixture against Chelsea.
Morgan Sanson, Anwar El Ghazi and Keinan Davis might all be cleared to return on Boxing Day.
Chelsea pair Romelu Lukaku and Callum Hudson-Odoi are both available after serving a period of self-isolation following positive Covid-19 tests.
Andreas Christensen is in contention to make his comeback from a back injury but Kai Havertz could miss out again.
