On This Day
Villa lose a second successive game to opposition they were expected to beat and even Derek Dougan's return and playing 10-men for almost 80 minutes does not help.
Joe Mercer's Villa lose for the second successive game to make it eight wins, two draws and six defeats in sixteen division one games so far in 1962-63.
