  • Villa face Chesterfield for the first time in competitive football, Chesterfield become the 77th team that the Villa first team has played in League or Cup football.

  • Villa, winless in five, can only draw with third division side Chesterfield in their first ever League or FA Cup meeting as they face off at Saltergate in the FA Cup third round ahead of a Villa Park replay.
