No new injury worries for Villa's O'Neill

Aston Villa manager Martin O’Neill has no fresh injury worries after the mid-week internationals for the home Premier League clash with Fulham.

Aston Villa manager Martin O’Neill has no fresh injury worries after the mid-week internationals for the home Premier League clash with Fulham.

Goalkeeper Thomas Sorensen is still sidelined with a hamstring injury but is expected to resume training next week.

Midfielder Patrik Berger’s jarred knee means he is again unavailable but he has started running and could also soon come into contention.

O’Neill is hoping striker John Carew will put an early season groin problem behind him after scoring twice for Norway against Argentina in mid-week.

Team (from): Carson, Taylor, Gardner, Mellberg, Laursen, Bouma, Barry, Reo-Coker, Petrov, Agbonlahor, Carew, Young, Moore, Harewood, Cahill, Maloney.
