On This Day
Sampy's goal on 5' is the first Villa had conceded in 8 since Albion scored against them on 20 October.
Villa lose for the first time in eight games despite Len Capewell's second goal in four as they suffer a shock defeat at Bramall Lane.
Villa make it eight wins, nine draws and four defeats in twenty one division one games.
Villa's first defeat in eight drops them to joint third in the table, three points off leaders Cardiff.
Midfielder Norman Mackay makes his Villa debut aged 21 after joining from Hibernian earlier this month.
