Aston Villa Break 109-Year Club Record After Recording Tenth Successive League Victory

Aston Villa have broken a 109-year club record after recording their tenth successive league victory in the 1-0 win over Millwall on Easter Monday.

The Villans were marooned in mid-table not long ago, but are now serious contenders for promotion from the Championship after a sensational run of form that has seen them win every game they have played since drawing 1-1 with Stoke on February 23.

Their latest win over Millwall, handed to them by Jonathan Kodjia's goal on the half hour mark, has cemented their place in fifth - all but sealing their place in the play-off spots alongside rivals West Brom.
