On This Day
Villa put in a strangely lacklustre performance at Preston and despite taking a point, miss the opportunity to further consolidate their top 6 position in their first season back in the top flight following relegation in 1959.
Joe Mercer's Villa make it four games unbeaten. As a result, Villa make it nine wins, eight at home, two draws, both away and six defeats, five away, in seventeen games following their return to the top flight.
