Aston Villa picked up a valuable point on Sunday afternoon thanks to a 2-2 draw against Manchester United at Old Trafford.

Aston Villa got back to winning ways in the Premier League on Monday evening thanks to a comfortable 2-0 win over Newcastle at Villa Park. Steve Bruce returned to Villa Park quietly confident that he could get one over on his former team, but Newcastle were poor and he would not have had much ground […]
Aston Villa made it three Premier League defeats in a row thanks to a poor performance against local rivals Wolves at the Molineux. Villa went into the game without Tom Heaton, Bjorn Engels, and Jack Grealish, three of their regular starting XI. If this wasn’t bad enough, they had to replace Jed Steer with Orjan […]
Aston Villa were denied a valuable point against Liverpool on Saturday thanks to a late Sadio Mane goal. Villa, with 88 minutes on the clock, probably thought that they had all three points in the bag, but Andy Robertson popped up with a late equaliser. Smith would have settled for a point, but Mane headed […]
Aston Villa have made it through to the last eight of the Carabao Cup thanks to a 2-1 win over local rivals Wolves.

Aston Villa’s three game unbeaten run in the Premier League came to an expected end on Saturday as they went down 3-0 to Manchester City at the Ethiad.

Aston Villa picked up another three very valuable points as they beat 10-man Brighton 2-1 at Villa Park. The game got off to a fast start, with the away side having more of the ball. They were causing Villa a number of issues, and it looked certain that they would be the first team to […]
International break is over and it is now time to return our attention to the Premier League. Before the two week hiatus, Aston Villa played Norwich at Carrow Road and blew them off the park. Everyone put in a top quality performance and Norwich, who had beaten Man City a few weeks earlier, just couldn’t […]
Aston Villa picked up a much needed three points on the road thanks to a 5-1 win over Norwich City at Carrow Road. The first half was played at a frenetic pace, with Villa taking the lead in the 14th minute when some dodgy defending meant that Wesley had ample time to chest the ball […]
Aston Villa had to settle for a point against Burnley despite the fact that they had the lead twice. The draw means that they still sit in the relegation zone, but a win against their next opponents, Norwich, could see them climb three or four places up the table. Failure to win, on the other […]
Aston Villa threw away two valuable points with a disappointing 2-2 draw against Burnley at Villa Park. Villa were the better team in the first-half and Burnley couldn’t have had much room for complaints if they had gone in at the break more than a goal down. Dean Smith’s men had a goal ruled out […]
