SCOTT Parker will miss today’s game with Aston Villa with an Achilles injury.

West Ham’s star player has been troubled by the injury throughout the season, but has been ruled out of the club’s vital bottom-of-the-table six-pointer at Upton Park.

He could even miss upcoming games against Chelsea and Manchester City, as manager Avram Grant considers resting Parker for the final three games of the season against Blackburn, Wigan and Sunderland.
