The pressure is on Paul Lambert's side to recover quickly from that dramatic setback, and Paddy Power prices the visitors at 15/8 (2.88) for victory at the Den.
Those odds may appear decent for a Premier League team against a Championship outfit, but Villa look dreadfully short of confidence and have won just two of their last nine games.

The reason this FA Cup tie is taking place on Friday evening and not on the weekend, as is usual tradition, is because major demonstrations against cuts at Lewisham Hospital - near the stadium - are going ahead from midday on Saturday.
The Lions have won seven of their last 11 fixtures on their own patch, and can be backed for victory here at 7/5 (2.40).
However, Burnley dispatched Kenny Jackett's side 2-0 at the Den last weekend to suggest backing Millwall to defeat Villa might be risky.

The best bet appears to be backing few goals - with Villa struggling in front of goal and Millwall very much missing the finishing abilities of 11-goal Chris Wood, who switched to promotion candidates Leicester at the turn of the year.
Five of the last seven games at the Den have seen two goals or less, and backing another goal-shy encounter here with under 2.5 goals coming in looks meaty at evens (2.0).
It promises to be a frosty fixture in South Bermondsey, and while a cup upset could be on the cards, backing a tense affair should ensure dividends are reaped from this match.
