Aston Villa will travel down to South London with the disappointment of Tuesday night's Capital One Cup Semi Final exit still fresh in their minds. Despite the 2-1 victory it was not enough for Villa to book a place in the final so now turn to the FA Cup as a welcome distraction from the battle with relegation.
Milwall on the other hand started the season well, but lost last time out in the League at home to Burnley which saw them slip to 9th place. The Championship side are severely weakened in attacking options with on loan striker Nathan Tyson being ruled out with injury and yesterday's sale of front man Darius Henderson to Nottingham Forest. Liam Feeney is fit again but Scott Malone is still sidelined along with Martyn Woolford (Cup tied) and Shane Lowry (Suspended).
Villa have Ashley Westwood and Jordan Bowery both fit and in contention to play but defenders Nathan Baker and Richard Dunne are still unavailable through injury.
