Villa pair face up to two weeks out

Aston Villa were today checking on the fitness of Emile Heskey and Jermaine Jenas after boss Alex McLeish confirmed they could be on the sidelines for the next fortnight.

McLeish said: “Emile looks like he’s pulled a hammy but I don’t know how bad it is, so he will get a scan today.
