Villa make it 🟩 three consecutive wins and three clean sheets as Villa remain 10th in the table under Graham Turner with 🟥 two defeats and 🟩 seven wins in their last 🕒 twelve League games.
Since the turn of the year Villa had 🟩 won four consecutive League games, followed by a five game winless run, and were now on another winning streak with eight left to play and a top ten finish - which had seemed so unlikely before the new year - looking possible.
Centre back Brendan Ormsby 🏴 scores his ⚽ 5th goal in a Villa shirt on his 🕒 119th appearance.
Centre forward Paul Rideout 🏴 scores his ⚽ 20th goal in a Villa shirt on his 🕒 57th appearance (50 Starts) having scores his first 10 ⚽ in 🕒 42 games.
