Millwall manager Kenny Jackett will give on-loan striker Rob Hulse every chance to prove his fitness before the FA Cup quarter-final clash with Blackburn on Sunday.
The QPR loanee is struggling with a stomach injury but will be assessed over the next couple of days to see if he can lead the line against Rovers.
Benik Afobe has returned to parent club Arsenal after suffering a serious knee injury while James Henry (knee) is also missing, with Martyn Woolford cup-tied.
Leon Best is in line to make his first Blackburn start for Michael Appleton's side.
Best, who suffered cruciate knee ligament damage shortly after a £3million summer move from Newcastle, made his long-awaited Rovers debut from the bench during the closing stages of Tuesday's night's 1-0
Championship defeat at Bolton.
The Republic of Ireland international appears set to partner Jordan Rhodes in attack as DJ Campbell is cup-tied.
Campbell's fellow loanees Cameron Stewart and David Jones are also unavailable, meaning Josh King and David Dunn could be named among the substitutes despite only returning to training on Friday from respective hamstring and calf problems.
On Monday the publication of the Reds' annual accounts revealed a loss of £40.5million with overall debt rising by £21.8million to £87.2million
But Rodgers denied that would impact on his spending, stressing owners Fenway Sports Group had already pledged their full support for his restructuring plans.
"If you look where the club was at four years ago and where it is now it is a different place," said the Liverpool boss, who has spent part of his first year in charge cutting the wage bill at Anfield by offloading high-earning but low-performing players.
"Of course there is still debt there but I think next year's results will show further improvement on that.
"In terms of me building the squad I've already got the assurances it won't affect anything.
"I think you have to give massive credit to the board and FSG because they took on an astronomical amount of debt - almost £400million - so where it is at now in their short period of time here is a huge credit to them while still supporting the investment of the team.
"They have made every promise and every commitment to me that every single penny they have will go into generating the squad and making it better.
"We won't be able to do it like some clubs and throw out masses each year but that is something as a club we are looking to standardise here while still growing the club and bringing in quality players and that won't stop in the summer."
Four points from their last two games edged Stanley out of the bottom two ahead of this weekend's trip to promotion-chasing Northampton.
Reds skipper Joyce is eager to see the run develop further in order to steer clear of any last-day drama.
He said: "It could go down to the wire. Hopefully we can drag ourselves out of it before the last couple of games.
"It's changing every week. That's how tight it is, teams are switching positions every week.
"Whoever is the most consistent will be the teams who can stay clear."
Having led the table for much of the season, Rovers have fallen to sixth position following five defeats and one victory in their last seven outings.
But with Sheffield United only four points better off in second and with many of the high-flyers still to play, Moore is confident his men can mount a final charge.
"We've still got everything to play for, we'll have a big say," he said ahead of Oldham's visit to Prenton Park this weekend.
"It's not like we need other teams to go and do things for us - we've actually got to play the top two, we've still got to play Sheffield United, we've still got to play Doncaster.
"There's Walsall, who are still in and around where we are. MK Dons will still think they've got a chance and we've still got to play them, we've got to play Bournemouth.
"So I'm looking forward to those games, they're the ones I think we'll be okay in. It's the ones you're expected to win where we seem to be tripping ourselves up."
Moore added: "On Monday I told them we don't want any bottom lips out and sad faces around the place.
"It's a fantastic achievement to even be in with half a chance of being in the play-offs, so we don't want to be disappointed that we're sixth now and we've been top of the league for four months.
"We've got to start playing the ball a little bit more and upping the tempo. With 10 games to go and 30 points to play for, there's everything to play for."
Villa are in the bottom three and approaching a vital week in their battle to stay in the top flight with a home match to follow against bottom placed QPR next weekend.
But Lambert senses no fear in his squad about the battle to survive and admits he thrives on the pressure.
He said: "You'd like to think everyone has got fight in them to win a game and it's okay to be aggressive.
"But it will take a lot of courage. You need a lot of courage to take the ball as well. You need to go and play football and not get caught up with the occasions.
"In the last few performances, we certainly don't look like a team that is playing under pressure.
"We will try and play the game and not the occasion. If you get caught up in the occasion it can certainly hurt you - but we are not lacking in confidence or any courage to compete with teams.
"I do believe we will be fine if keep playing the way we are."
Lambert added: "If you win these two games, you are right up there but a lot of teams will be saying that. We are certainly playing well enough to win them.
"The situation remains so tight between the middle and the bottom part of the table.
"I feel we've got some momentum to be honest. The confidence is there. I don't need to lift them. I can see it in training and the last few games.
"It doesn't look like a team that is frightened of the situation. That is the pleasing thing."
Lambert is aware of the financial implications of Villa being relegated but is focusing on the tasks ahead during the next two and a half months.
He said: "I think there are more important things to worry about than finances at the minute.
"We will speak about it in due time but the main thing for me is football matches.
"The main focus now is to stay in the league. That is everyone's focus.
"It's not just the finances if you go down. No-one wants to go down, for your own prestige, everything."
Lambert added: "Do I enjoy this situation? Listen, I love the pressure of it. It's my job.
"Sometimes you are up, sometimes you get down, but over the whole course of the thing, you like pressure on you all the time."
Villa have been boosted by the return to training of skipper and central defender Ron Vlaar who has missed the last two games with a calf problem.
Lambert said: "Ron is fine. He has trained the last couple of days and didn't look too bad. I will see how he is after today.
"If he comes through all right, then we will see how everybody is."
Midfielder Fabian Delph will start a two game ban after collecting his 10th yellow card of the campaign in the 1-0 home defeat against Manchester City on Monday.
The 31-year-old, who scored 59 league goals for the Latics between 2002 and 2005, has been on trial with the Railwaymen since January after being released by Championship strugglers Ipswich.
He has also enjoyed spells at Bristol Rovers, West Brom and Watford in the past.
The news will come as a relief to Alex boss Steve Davis, who had been working to complete a move for the forward in time for the trip to Colchester on Saturday.
