Villa remain in joint first place in the Division One table level with Ipswich.
Midfielder Gordon Cowans 🏴 scores his ⚽ 25th goal in a Villa shirt on his 🕒 192nd appearance (177 Starts) to make it 🟩 W87 🟨 D51 🟥 L54, ⚽ 25 Goals and 🔥 24 Assists at a goal involvement rate of one for every 3.92 games he has played so far in his Villa career.
Winger Tony Morley 🏴 makes his 🕒 50th start in a Villa shirt.
