ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 26 November 1932
  • Villa lose for the second time in sixteen games as a poor defensive performance, littered with mistakes, costs them dearly.

  • If the unexpected defeat in the derby at the Hawthorns was a shock then this to relegation fodder Manchester City was seismic, not least having come after Villa's rout of their title rivals the previous week.

  • Villa make it ten wins, four draws and two defeats in their sixteen division one games so far this season.

  • Villa have now scored 42 goals in 16 games so far in 1932-33 but have now conceded 23, sixteen of which have come in their last five games.

  • Villa are now without a clean sheet in five and have six clean sheets in 16.

  • Villa drop to second in the table, two points behind leaders Arsenal who make no mistake in their game against Boro

  • Up next are fourth placed Sheffield Wednesday at Villa Park.
