Dwight Yorke records his 50th draw in a Villa shirt on his 196th appearance (156 Starts) to make it W85 D50 L61, 59 Goals, 29 Assists and 2 Bookings at a goal involvement rate of one for every 2.23 games he has played so far in his Villa career.
Steve Staunton records his 50th draw in a Villa shirt on his 184th appearance (179 Starts) to make it W77 D50 L57, 15 Goals, 23 Assists and 10 Bookings so far in his Villa career.

On This Day
Villa end the season on consecutive 0-1 defeats but nothing can take away from their stunning campaign under Brian Little which sees exhilarating football almost from first to last and victory in the League Cup for a record fifth time.
Despite a slow end to the season, Brian Littleโs first full season as Villa boss was an unmitigated success. A 4th place finish in the Premier League and a record equalling 5th League Cup win were the highlights however the emergence of an exciting formation prompting attacking football and a squad full of character suggested bright days ahead.
Centre back Paul Browne, 21, makes his second and final appearance in a Villa shirt before moving on to Raith Rovers for ยฃ120,000 in July 1996. Browne left with a record of W0 D1 L2 and 2 Bookings across his brief Villa career.
Lee Hendrie makes his 3rd appearance in a Villa shirt 6 months after his debut and for the first time in two months to make it W0 D1 L2, 2 Bookings and 1 Red Card so far in his Villa career.
Former Villa centre forward Paul Rideout came on as a 70โ substitute for Everton.
