On This Day
Villa draw for the third successive game and the fourth time in seven games this season but there is some merit given the points were shred against unbeaten League leaders Blackpool.
For the third time in seven games this season Villa concede a goal immediately after half time but the real issue is scoring goals as Villa rely on an early own goal for their first half lead having scored just 8 goals so far this campaign.
Villa make it one win, four draws and two defeats in seven games this season.
