On This Day
Villa stop the rot with a late win over Arsenal at Villa Park but their recent form leaves them languishing in 18th.
Joe Mercer's Villa win for the first time in six and end a run of five successive losses as they win at home for only the second time this season to make it five wins, a draw and eight defeats in fourteen League games.
