Len Capewell scores his sixth goal in four games but Villa are held to a 2-2 draw for the second successive game, this time by newly promoted Manchester United who had gained such a fortunate win two games earlier.
Villa make it one win, two draws and a defeat in their four division one matches this season.
Villa drop back to joint 6th in the table.
Winger Reg Chester makes his Villa debut aged 20 after joining from Stamford Town in December 1924.
Midfielder Tom Jones makes his fifth and final appearance aged 20 before on moving to Burnley in August 1926.
