Get the latest team news ahead of Aston Villa's trip to the City of Manchester Stadium. The winner of the FA Cup fifth round replay will be rewarded with a quarter final clash against either Bolton or West Ham. Aston Villa team news: James Milner is unlikely to start the match as he is struggling with a stomach bug. Luke Moore is on standby to continue on the right wing if Milner fails to recover. Patrik Berger is in the squad for the first time in almost five months after recovering from his long-term knee injury and O'Leary must decide whether to keep faith in Milan Baros after his woeful display against Blackburn on Saturday.

Manchester City team news: Sylvain Distin is still struggling with a groin strain so faces a late fitness test. Joey Barton and Trevor Sinclair have minor injuries but Stuart Pearce is likely to risk both players.
