Aston Villa manager Paul Lambert is able to call upon defenders Ron Vlaar and Aly Cissohko for the visit of Hull City on Sunday afternoon.
Both players missed Villa's League Cup defeat to Leyton Orient, but the pair will start as Lambert reverts back to the team that drew with Newcastle United last weekend.
That will result in new signing Carlos Sanchez having to wait for his full Premier League debut.
Hull City boss Steve Bruce will hand a start to defender Michael Dawson, who has moved to the KC Stadium from Tottenham Hotspur.
Dawson will replace James Chester, who was sent off against Stoke City last weekend, while Tom Huddlestone, Tom Ince and Nikica Jelavic will all return to the starting lineup at Villa Park.
The Tigers will be looking for a positive response after bowing out of the Europa League on Thursday night.
