Team News: Gabriel Agbonlahor back in for Aston Villa

Paul Lambert makes three changes to his Aston Villa side, while Tony Pulis makes two for Crystal Palace.

Gabriel Agbonlahor has returned from suspension to start for Aston Villa for their home Premier League clash against Crystal Palace on Boxing Day.

Suspension forces Ashley Westwood the other way, with Karim El Ahmadi coming in for him, while the final change for Paul Lambert sees Chris Herd make way for Antonio Luna.

For Tony Pulis's side, there are two changes following the defeat to Newcastle United last week. Marouane Chamakh drops out of the side with Yannick Bolasie in for him, while Jonathan Parr replaces Dean Moxey.

Villa: Guzan; Lowton, Clark, Baker, Luna; Albrighton, El Ahmadi, Delph; Weimann, Agbonlahor, Kozak

Palace: Speroni; Mariappa, Delaney, Gabbidon, Parr; Ward, Jedinak, Bolasie, Puncheon, Bannan; Jerome
