Aston Villa set to discover Jonathan Kodjia fate

Villa will find out tomorrow whether or not Jonathan Kodjia will be available for Sunday's Second City Derby after the striker revealed on social media that an appeal had been launched against his Easter Monday red card.

The striker was sent off for an alleged kick-out at Ryan Fredericks during the 3-1 defeat to Fulham.

As well as missing the remainder of that fixture, the three-match ban that came with the card seemingly brought an end to Kodjia's season with just three games left.

However, a successful appeal would mean the 20-goal top scorer lines up against Harry Redknapp's Birmingham City.
