On This Day
Villa record a second successive home win and are now unbeaten in five following their opening day defeat as Johnny Dixon scores on his first appearance of the season that not coincidentally sees Villa put in their best performance of 1947-48 to date.
Villa keep their third successive clean sheet and fourth in six games so far this season.
Villa climb to joint 4th in the table with third placed Blackpool up next.
