ON THIS DAY
Friday, 13 April 2018
Fresh from his spectacular late winner against Cardiff last time out, Jack Grealish creates the goal that secures a second successive win for promotion chasing Villa.
Villa win successive games and for the third time in four as their dream of return to the Premier League remains alive.
Centre back Christopher Samba makes his 14th and final appearance for Villa (7 Starts) aged 34 before being released in July 2017. Samba made 14 appearances, 7 as substitute and scored once in his single season with Villa to leave with a record of W8 D4 L2.
Lewis Grabban scores his fifth goal in a Villa shirt on his 12th appearance (8 Starts) to make it W6 D2 L4, 5 Goals and 1 Assist so far in his Villa career.
