Agbonlahor winning fitness battle

Aston Villa striker Gabriel Agbonlahor is winning his battle to be fit for the Barclays Premier League clash with Bolton at the Reebok Stadium.

Agbonlahor missed the 1-1 home draw with West Ham last weekend after suffering a calf strain during the previous encounter with Everton.

He will be challenging John Carew - joint top scorer alongside himself with 13 goals this season - and Emile Heskey for a starting place.

Villa boss Martin O'Neill has no fresh injury worries as his side look to end a run of 11 games without a win in all competitions.

Team (from): Friedel, L. Young, Cuellar, Davies, Shorey, Milner, Petrov, Barry, A. Young, Heskey, Carew, Agbonlahor, Guzan, Delfouneso, Gardner, Sidwell, Salifou, Knight, Reo-Coker.
