Aston Villa are hopeful that goalkeeper Emi Martinez, who was substituted at half-time on Saturday because of a stomach virus, will be fit to play.
They remain without injured quartet Matty Cash, Boubacar Kamara, Philippe Coutinho and Leon Bailey.
Fulham loanee Daniel James is available, having been ineligible to face his parent club Leeds United at the weekend.
Top scorer Aleksandar Mitrovic is still serving an eight-match suspension.
