Aston Villa's promotion push is now in top gear following their sixth successive league win - a feat they last achieved in February 1990 - following a 3-2 Championship home win over Burton.
Scott Hogan scored his fifth goal of the season in the first half, with Albert Adomah increasing the advantage in the 67th minute only for the Brewers to hit back with Ahmed Elmohamady putting through his own net.
Jack Grealish notched Villa's third goal two minutes from time and, although Liam Boyce swiftly grabbed a second for gritty Burton, the hosts held on for a far-from-convincing victory.
