On This Day
Villa win their fifth successive home game as Billy Walker hits a hat-trick to help Villa to a seventh win in nine games.
Pongo Waring scores for the eighth game in nine after missing out for the first time this season in the defeat at Ayresome Park and makes it fourteen goals in nine games in 1930-31.
Waring also contributes his fifth and sixth assists of the season to make it 20 goal involvements in 9 matches from the centre forward.
Villa score four or more for the fourth time in nine games this season and have now scored six twice.
Villa make it two clean sheets but TWENTY EIGHT goals scored in their first nine League games. Leaders Arsenal remain the outright top scorers with 29 but they are held at Sheffield United to allow second placed Villa to close the gap to a single point.
Villa's victory is even more impressive given the beaten opposition is third placed Huddersfield who had hitherto scored 23 goals themselves this season.
