O'Neill given double injury boost

Aston Villa, 12:35, November 20, 2009 ,

Striker Emile Heskey and defender James Collins are both poised to return from injury for Aston Villa at Burnley on Saturday.

Heskey was forced to miss Villa's 5-1 win against Bolton with a back problem which also ruled him out of England's defeat to Brazil last week, while Collins has been sidelined for a fortnight with a groin strain.
Midfielder Stilyan Petrov is set for a recall after missing the Bolton game with a one-match ban while defender Habib Beye is also available again after suspension.
But winger Stewart Downing is again missing, despite being back in training after a broken foot, while left-back Wilfred Bouma's comeback from a dislocated ankle has been delayed by a toe injury.
