Emile Heskey starts up front alongside Darren Bent for Aston Villa, while Tottenham Hotspur are unchanged for tonight's fixture.

Alex McLeish has decided to partner Emile Heskey up front with Darren Bent for Aston Villa's trip to Tottenham Hotspur this evening.

Gabriel Agbonlahor has recovered from a groin injury that forced him to withdraw from the England squad, while Alan Hutton also starts against his former club.

The returning Harry Redknapp has named an unchanged Tottenham team, meaning that Rafael van der Vaart will support Emmanuel Adebayor in attack.

Spurs: Friedel; Walker Kaboul King Assou-ekotto; Lennon Parker Modric Bale; Van der Vaart, Adebayor

Villa: Given; Cuellar, Dunne, Collins, Warnock; Hutton, Petrov, Herd, Heskey; Agbonlahor, Bent
