On This Day
Villa take part in a "splendid struggle" as they face off against reigning champions and League leaders Huddersfield.
Billy Walker scores for the sixth successive game to make it eight for the season as Villa recover from conceding a penalty (Cyril Spiers saved) and going a goal behind.
In the end Villa are close to snatching it as two of the games greats go toe to toe.
Villa fall back to joint 8th despite their strongest performance of the season so far with the short trip to neighbours Birmingham up next.
