Coventry City 7th | Aston Villa 10th (22)

The absence of Wallace and Ferguson is too much, and Villa’s smash-and-grab style catches City out. Defensive blunders let in Little and McNaught and Gray scores with a diving header. McDonald leads the fightback, and Gray heads his shot off the line to prevent the equaliser.
