On This Day
With Sam Hardy's injury sustained in the heavy defeat at Preston last time out much more serious than expected it is announced that he will be absent for many weeks.
Reserve 'keeper Jim Lee - who conceded five at Bolton in September - comes in for this second appearance for the campaign as Clem Stephenson scores a brace to get Villa back to winning ways.
Villa make it eight wins, a draw and three defeats in twelve division one games.
Villa retake the outright lead at the top of the table, one point ahead of Newcastle, Liverpool and Everton.
