Aston Villa boss Alex McLeish says Barry Bannan is available for Monday night's meeting with Tottenham.
The Scotland midfielder was suspended by the club for the October 29 clash with Sunderland after he was involved in a drink-driving incident which he was charged for earlier this week and was then left out for the home win over Norwich City two weeks ago.
21-year old Bannan was also omitted by Scotland for their friendly with Cyprus last weekend but McLeish indicated he will be in the match-day squad for the trip to White Hart Lane.
"Barry is available for the match and he was left out against Norwich for football reasons," said McLeish.
