Aston Villa could be without four players ahead of their clash with Nottingham Forest this weekend.
The Reds will head to Villa Park on Saturday (3pm kick-off) looking to put their defeat to Leeds United behind them and get back to winning ways. However, there is set to be a surprisingly upbeat atmosphere among the travelling Forest fans after owner Evangelos Marinakis confirmed that Steve Cooper would be remaining as manager .
Forest are in desperate need of three points as the team have gone eight games without a win and sit perilously above the bottom three on goal difference. Cooper’s side have recorded only one win on the road this season but could be handed a boost from Villa, who currently have four players on the sidelines.
