The ex-Villains boss, who died on Saturday, guided the club to their last league title, and set the foundation for their lone European success
Aston Villa players will wear black armbands against Leicester City in remembrance of one of their greatest managers, Ron Saunders, who passed away on Saturday, at the age of 87.
The club will also honour their former boss with a minute’s applause before kick-off in the Midlands derby.
Saunders guided Villa to two League Cups and the First Division trophy in 1980-81, the last time they won the English league titles, and the first time since 1909-10.
