On This Day
Villa's terrible home form worsens and the natives are getting restless, very restless.
Joe Mercer's Villa suffer a fourth home defeat in five division one matches at Villa Park to make it four wins, a draw and five defeats in the first ten League games of the season. Former Villa striker Derek Pace does the damage for United.
