ON THIS DAY
Sunday, 22 August 2004
Villa open the scoring with an early goal for the second successive game but cannot hold onto three points and so remain 3rd in the table as there are hopes that the form of 2003-04 looks to has continued into the new season.
Thomas Hitzlsperger contributes his 25th goal involvement in a Villa shirt on his 86th appearance (67 Starts) to make it W34 D20 L32, 10 Goals, 15 Assists and 9 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
