Aston Villa prepare to entertain West Ham United at Villa Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Villans are clearly on top, having won 25 and lost only 12 of the 49 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Villa Park was less than a year ago, in January 2010, when they played out a goalless draw in a Premier League match.
