QPR join Villa and Luton in joint third place as Villa lose successive League games and three in all competitions. Worse still, Villa lose their unbeaten home record that was the best in all four divisions until Rangers’ visit.
Vic Crowe's Villa lose successive League games for the first time this season to make it seven wins, two draws and three defeats in twelve matches. As a result Villa fell back to fourth in Division Two.
