Aina sustained an injury in the first leg at the City Ground last week.

Pereira remains unsure if the 29-year-old will be available for the trip to Villa Park.
“We have a lot of doubts with players but we cannot have doubts around the spirit and what we want and our belief,” Pereira was quoted by the club’s official website.
“We will have a meeting to the army and what soldiers we have to go into battle.”
The Tricky Trees head into the encounter with a slim 1-0 lead courtesy of Chris Wood’s pinpoint penalty .
