Aston Villa play host to Burnley at Villa Park on Sunday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Villans are clearly on top, having won 32 and lost only 8 of the 54 games.
The last time the two teams met at Aston Villa was just over four years ago, in October 2005, the Villans carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a League Cup match.
