Aston Villa strikers Gabriel Agbonlahor and Emile Heskey have been declared fit for tomorrow’s home Barclays Premier League derby with Wolves.

The duo have recovered from hamstring and groin injuries respectively which saw them substituted during last weekend’s 3-1 win home success over Blackburn.

Chris Herd is favourite to replace Luke Young at right-back.

Young is having talks with QPR after the clubs agreed a fee but is currently sidelined with a knee injury.

Provisional squad: Given, Guzan, Herd, Collins, Dunne, Warnock, Petrov, Delph, Heskey, Agbonlahor, Bent, N’Zogbia, Albrighton, Clark, Bannan, Ireland, Delfouneso, Makoun, Lichaj, Weimann, Hogg, Baker, Lowry.
