Impact Elliott has been a depth piece for Villa and hasn't seen many minutes at the Premier League level, so his absence won't have a big impact from a fantasy perspective. He could return to face Wolverhampton on Friday, Feb. 27, but even if he's cleared to return, he's not expected to see many minutes.

Andres Garcia - Expected to return Saturday Garcia (hamstring) is expected to be an option for Saturday's game against Leeds United, manager Unai Emery revealed during Friday's press conference.

Impact Garcia was not mentioned among the injury absentees for this contest, so he's expected to return after being sidelined for the last three-plus weeks with a hamstring injury. Garcia is a depth option on defense and isn't expected to start regularly even if healthy, so he's not likely to have a big impact from a fantasy perspective.

Impact Bizot was sent off with a straight red card during the first half of Saturday's FA Cup clash against Newcastle United. The goalkeeper will miss at least one match due to suspension.

Impact Cash picked up a minor knee issue in Wednesday's win over the Seagulls and is now a question mark for Saturday's FA Cup showdown against the Magpies. The right-back is expected to go through a final evaluation after the last training session to determine whether he is fit enough to suit up. If he does not get the green light, Lamare Bogarde could be in line to step into the starting role on the right side of the backline.
