Villa boss the second half against table topping Arsenal but still lose at home, remaining bottom of the table, having already played a game more than those around them. It's not looking good.
Eric Houghton's Villa lose for the eighth time in twelve to make it three wins, three draws and eight defeats in fourteen division one games so far this season.
