On This Day
Villa record consecutive wins for only the second time this season and the first time in 1958 as they avenge their heavy defeat at Turf Moor early in the campaign.
Eric Houghton's Villa win successive games for the first time since December six to make it eleven wins, five draws and sixteen defeats in thirty two division one games.
Despite the lack of wins, Houghton's team have now delivered seven of their eleven with strong scorelines of 5-1, 4-3, 5-2, 3-0, 5-2, 4-2 and 3-0.
