ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 6 January 2024
Villa make it into the fourth round of the FA Cup for the first time in nine seasons but it's another distinctly odd refereeing performance from Robert Jones.
Douglas Luiz contributes his 20th assist in a Villa shirt on his 180th appearance for Villa (159 Starts) since joining in August 2019 to make it W76 D31 L73, 19 Goals, 20 Assists, 43 Bookings and 2 Red Cards so far in his Villa career.
Leon Bailey makes his 50th start in a Villa shirt (81 Appearances) to make it W40 D9 L32, 15 Goals, 14 Assists and 13 Bookings at a goal involvement rate of one every 1.72 starts so far in his Villa career.
Boubacar Kamara, returning from a 3 game suspension, makes his 50th appearance in a Villa shirt (46 Starts) to make it W31 D4 L15 so far in his Villa career.
Leander Dendoncker secures his 20th win in a Villa shirt on his 36th appearance (13 starts) to make it W20 D5 L11, 1 Goal and 1 Red Card so far in his Villa career.
Jhon Durán secures his 20th win in a Villa shirt on his 34th appearance (7 Starts) to make it W20 D5 L9, 4 Goals and 6 Bookings at a goal involvement rate of one every 1.75 starts so far in his Villa career.
