Aston Villa manager Paul Lambert will welcome back a quartet of players but has fitness concerns over two others for the home Barclays Premier League clash with Liverpool on Sunday.

Darren Bent (foot), Nathan Baker (head) and Karim El Ahmadi (ankle) are all in contention to face the Reds.

Provisional squad: Guzan, Given, Lowton, Vlaar, Clark, Lichaj, Stevens, Baker, Bennett, Sylla, El Ahmadi, Ireland, Westwood, Dawkins, N'Zogbia, Bannan, Holman, Benteke, Agbonlahor, Bent, Bowery, Weimann. end
