On This Day
Villa suffer a second red card in three League games as goalscorer Harry Burrows is sent off for a scuffle. Albion are reduced to ten men too but by that point Villa, climbing to 7th in the table, already had the game won.
Joe Mercer's Villa make it three successive wins for the first time since August to make it seven wins, a draw and four defeats in twelve division one games so far in 1962-63.
