Aston Villa injury latest vs Wolves as Steven Gerrard receives huge boost

Aston Villa are almost back to a clean bill of health as Steven Gerrard prepares his side for a return to action.

The final international break is over and Villa will begin their final stretch of the season with a game against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux. Gerrard will welcome back Lucas Digne from a hamstring injury with the Frenchman returning to action for his country having missed Villa's 1-0 defeat to Arsenal last time out.

Only Marvelous Nakamba remains out, though the long-term absentee with a knee injury is set to return to Under-23s action on Friday. Leon Bailey has come through the international break unscathed as his comeback from a thigh injury continues to be managed while Kortney Hause is over an abdominal problem.

Gerrard declared Villa 'at full health' and after discussing his plan for Nakamba added: "The rest are all healthy, in a good place and ready to go."

Here's the latest Villa injury news...

: Hamstring.

: Saturday vs Wolves.

: Digne had to be replaced ten minutes into the 2-1 defeat to West Ham United on March 13.

: "Lucas has come through 90 minutes for France, which is a big positive from the last time we had a squad to pick."

: Knee.

: TBD.

: Nakamba is returning to fitness from a knee injury sustaned against Liverpool in December and has been penciled in for a game with Villa's Under-23s on Friday.

: "Marvelous will play for the reserves tonight and he'll play somewhere between 45 and 60 minutes, which is a big positive."

"Hopefully he can be back and have a full week leading into Tottenham and maybe be available to face them. It might be a bit too soon for him now because he hasn't had any serious game time.

"Hopefully he comes through that, recovers well and then he can be back
