Agbonlahor hurt the sole of his foot when he ended up tumbling into the stands in the 2-2 draw at Liverpool.

That was Villa's last Premier League game and he has been unable to train since.

Loan signing Grant Holt may be asked to take Agbonlahor's place following his move from Wigan.

Defender Nathan Baker is available for the Villa Park clash (7.45pm) following concussion.

Provisional squad: Guzan, Steer, Vlaar, Clark, Baker, Luna, Bertrand, Lowton, Bacuna, El Ahmadi, Albrighton, Westwood, Delph, Sylla, Holt, Gardner, Tonev, Helenius, Weimann, Agbonlahor, Benteke, Bowery.
