On This Day
Villa play just 48 hours after their defeat at Ayresome Park and win away for the first time this season as they beat Wolves at Molineux.
Johnny Dixon scores for the third successive game as Villa win for the second time in three games under George Martin.
Villa now have as many wins under Martin in 14 games as they achieved in 22 under the ill-fated management committee structure.
Villa climb out of the bottom two for the first time since January.
