Aston Villa striker Wesley is in line to start tonight's Carabao Cup tie with Barrow.
The Brazilian striker has been limited to just four substitute appearances since recovering from a serious knee injury sustained on New Year's Day, 2020, says the Express & Star.
But he is expected to be handed the start at Holker Street for what is the first ever meeting between the two clubs.
Wesley is among the players who could depart Villa on loan before the end of the month in order to get more playing time.
For the moment, however, the 24-year-old is the club's second-choice forward with Ollie Watkins still unavailable due to a bruised knee.
Dean Smith will use the trip to Lancashire as an opportunity to give those players who have been limited in Villa's opening two Premier League matches valuable match practice.
Axel Tuanzebe and Kortney Hause are both set to feature in defence, while Carney Chukwuemeka and Jaden Philogene-Bidace could be handed their first senior starts.
