On This Day
Villa extend their unbeaten run to seven but Boro take the lead against the run of play after a long punt upfield but despite almost total attacking domination have to wait until midway throught the second half to grab a deserved equaliser.
Despite a third successive draw Villa climb back to joint fourth.
