One of English footballs oldest league fixtures with games dating back to 1892.
Two of the divisions most successful clubs with 28 trophies between them, though most of ours were won in the black and white era.
We travel to Villa Park hoping to consolidate our top six spot against a Villa side who've won three out of the last four.
Been to Villa Park plenty of times over the years, my last visit was a 1-0 win in the league cup back in 2001, Evan Ekoku netting the only goal in a shock win.
Other memorable trips include a 1-0 win in 1992 when Nigel Jemson scored a controversial winner on my 11th birthday
And a win after a penalty save by Pressman in 1997
A proper old school ground and fixture taking me back to my youth, hopefully we can grind out a result but expect a score draw which I'd take if the rumour about Forestieri being injured is true.
