On This Day
Villa claim their 6th league win of the season under Ron Atkinson but not before surviving a late open goal scare against Swindon.
Villa win consecutive Premier League games for the first time since August and climb to 5th in the table.
Ugo Ehiogu secures his 10th win in a Villa shirt on his 17th appearance (9 Starts) to make it W10 D3 L4 and 1 Assist so far in his Villa career.
Dariusz Kubicki makes his first appearance for eleven months and only his second in nineteen months to make it 33 appearances in a Villa shirt (31 Starts), W13 D9 L11, 2 Bookings and 1 Red Card so far in his Villa career.

What they Said
"The winner came in the 68th minute when Dalian Atkinson claimed his seventh goal of the season from 12 yards."
AN amazing miss from Swindonโs Norwegian international striker Jan Aage Fjortoft just two minutes from time at the County Ground summed up a miserable afternoon for the Premiership's bottom side.
Fjortoft was only a yard out from the Villa goal with his side trailing 2-1 when he disastrously mis-kicked across goal and Villa cleared.
Swindon had taken a 33rd minute lead through Paul Bodin's penalty after Ehiogu pushed Andy Mutch in the box.
Two minutes before the break Villa hit back as Garry Parker's cross from the left was flicked on and Teale volleyed home at the far post.
The winner came in the 68th minute when Dalian Atkinson claimed his seventh goal of the season from 12 yards.
