Aston Villa striker Andi Weimann admits Christian Benteke's suspension is a big blow.

Benteke was sent off in defeat to Tottenham on Sunday.

"We will miss him," said Weimann.

"In the first half and start of the second he was brilliant for us. But I'm sure we have other players coming back to fill in for him.

"We can't change he got a red card. We played well and we have to look forward to the next game."
