For the second time in three games, Villa put the game to bed by half-time, as they hit three first-half goals just as they had done against Coventry a fortnight earlier.
John Hickman scores his first goal for Villa, as does Darius Vassell - one of the new YTS apprentices taken on this season.
Villa keep a third clean sheet in a row, make it three consecutive wins and four unbeaten games at the start of their title defence.
Forward Richard Burgess plays in defence.
