Kevin Richardson scores his 11th goal in a Villa shirt on his 112th appearance to make it W51 D31 L30, 11 Goals and 10 Assists so far in his Villa career.
Mark Bosnich keeps his 10th clean sheet in a Villa shirt on his 20th appearance (and first as a substitute) to make it W10 D4 L6, 14 Goals Conceded at a rate of 0.70 goals per game and 10 Clean Sheets (50%) so far in his Villa career.
