Taylor and Grealish doubts for Stoke clash

Aston Villa face the prospect of being without both Jack Grealish and Neil Taylor for this weekend’s clash against Stoke City.

StokeonTrentLive report that both players are doubts for the game as they continue to recover from the controversial 2-2 draw with West Brom on Friday night.

Neither Grealish or Taylor were able to finish the match on Friday with both players being replaced in the second half.

The Welsh defender pulled up with an injury problem and had to be replaced by Ahmed Elmohamady.

Dean Smith also confirmed that Grealish’s problem was hamstring related, although it is not believed to be too serious.

After Stoke’s 2-0 win against Ipswich on Saturday afternoon, Gary Rowett’s side could move above Villa in the table if they take all three points.

Meanwhile, for Villa, a win against Stoke could take them to within one point of the play-off spots.
