On This Day
Villa are selected to play away from home on New Years Day for the 13th time in the 14 fixtures they have played on 1st January.

Villa lose for the 11th time in 14 New Years Day fixtures and score for only the fifth game.
Villa open 1926 with a fourth defeat in their last five games as Len Capewell hits his twenty fourth goal of the season.
Villa make it ten wins, seven draws and six defeats in their twenty three division one matches.
Meanwhile, full back Cecil Harris, aged 27, made his final appearance of twenty six for Villa over his four seasons with the club before moving on to Grimsby Town.
