Adel Taarabt, who has been involved in a very public falling out with Redknapp since last weekend, is not in the squad - however is exclusion is understood to be due to illness.
Paul Lambert's Villa have lost their last four games - and as they look to bring that run to an end - they will have to do so without the impressive Philippe Senderos whose thigh injury keeps him out.
