Aston Villa are working to recover star striker Ollie Watkins in time for Saturday's Premier League showdown with Ipswich Town at Villa Park.
The England international missed the 2-1 FA Cup fourth-round win over Tottenham Hotspur last weekend on account of his groin problem, but Unai Emery has expressed hope that he would be fit for the visit of the Tractor Boys.
The Spaniard is not exactly short of options to stand in for Watkins if need be, though; Donyell Malen led the line in the Spurs victory, but Marco Asensio and Marcus Rashford are alternatives.
However, there is a strong chance that Watkins will be passed fit for Saturday, where Asensio could instead make his Premier League debut on the right-hand side over Leon Bailey.
As Morgan Rogers and Jacob Ramsey - the scorers in the win over Ange Postecoglou's side - are more or less indispensable in attack, Rashford might have to hope for another appearance from the bench.
Further back, Youri Tielemans and John McGinn should man the midfield again, but Ezri Konsa's muscular issue from the FA Cup means that he joins Pau Torres (ankle) on the sidelines.
Tyrone Mings (knee) is fit to return, but given his history of issues, there is every chance that Emery will pair new signing Axel Disasi up with Boubacar Kamara, while Andres Garcia can expect to deputise for Matty Cash at right-back again.
Aston Villa possible starting lineup:
Martinez; Garcia, Kamara, Disasi, Digne; McGinn, Tielemans; Asensio, Rogers, Ramsey; Watkins
