Southampton vs Aston Villa Head-to-Head

The first clash between these teams took place in the old Second Division during the 1936/37 season. Only in 1966 did they contest a top-flight fixture for the first time, and three years later they met in the FA Cup Fourth Round; AVFC won 2-1 in the replay at Villa Park.

Southampton & Aston Villa continued to face each other regularly throughout the 1980s and they were both founding members of the Premier League in 1992. The Saints recorded an emphatic 6-1 victory in this fixture during the 1993/94 season, though the Villans would run out 4-1 winners on their visit to The Dell in November 1998, courtesy of Dion Dublin’s hat-trick.

After returning to the Premier League in 2012, Southampton scored four second-half goals to complete a comeback win against Aston Villa at St Mary’s Stadium.

This fixture in May 2015 saw Sadio Mané net the fastest hat-trick in Premier League history before Shane Long added another two to put Southampton 5-0 up inside 40 minutes. Graziano Pelle rounded off the scoring in a historic 6-1 triumph for the Saints.

AVFC claimed a 1-0 victory on their visit to St Mary’s Stadium in January 2023, with Ollie Watkins notching the decisive goal.
