Barry will miss the F.A. Cup fifth round tie, meaning that he will get a well earned rest after presumably lining up for England against Spain in midweek.
Villa face a congested fixture list towards the end of February as they take on the Toffees, CSKA Moscow (twice), Chelsea and Stoke in the space of 14 days.
Barry, who has been in fine form this season, is crucial to Villa's hopes of achieving Champions League football and the booking may prove to be a backhanded benefit.
But, with the Claret and Blue fans desprate for silverware, it could be a knock out blow should his stand-in not perform at Goodison.
