ON THIS DAY
Wednesday, 5 October 1977
Andy Gray scores his sixth of the season as Villa look on course for a second away win of the campaign as they dominate the first half at Elland Road but Leeds hit back in an equally dominant showing in the second. Villa, and Leeds, leave the field to applause from an appreciative away crowd for the second time in three games.
Ron Saunders' Villa make it three wins, two draws and four defeats in nine division one games this season.
