ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 3 September 1977
Villa, in the West Country for a second successive game, look to be heading to another victory before "rhythm" or complacency allows City back in to earn a point.
Ron Saunders' Villa stop a run of two league defeats to make it one win, one draw and two defeats in four division one games this season.
