ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 6 September 1980
Villa lose their unbeaten record as they fall to a hugely unlucky defeat at Portman Road despite being in the ascendancy throughout and fall back to 4th in the early table whilst opponents Ipswich remain top.
Ron Saunders' Villa lose for the first time this season and the first time in seven games as they make it three wins, one draw and one defeat in five League matches.
