It's a busy couple of weeks for Aston Villa and Monday night saw them get off to a poor start against West Bromwich Albion, before clawing their way back into the game and securing a point in surprising circumstances. Buoyed by that, expectations were high for Saturday's game against Sunderland. Another draw, another point and another frustrating day at Villa Park for supporters.
In this week's Aston Villa Review, Chris and Steve analyse Villa's two latest results and performances, and look ahead to the next two. Villa go to Southampton on Wednesday and to Fulham on Sunday, keen to pile on some more away points in the apparent absence of home inspiration.

Aston Villa Review: Episode 60 - West Bromwich Albion and Sunderland previews
The international break is at an end and the Premier League action is back, but Aston Villa are yet to play. This week's Aston Villa Review is therefore a double preview edition, looking ahead to a bumper week for Paul Lambert's side and, hopefully, a six-point bonanza.
First up, the small matter of a visit this very evening to West Bromwich Albion, self-appointed Pride of the Midlands, in a derby game that grows more and more bitter by the season, now that the other lot are heading for oblivion. And then on Saturday it's back to Villa Park to face Sunderland, whose short-lived resurgence should be cause for concern for their supporters.

Aston Villa Review: Episode 59 - Red Bull?
Another week off for internationals and it's very, very quiet in the world of Aston Villa. No matter: this week's Aston Villa Review is a gleefully taken opportunity to welcome some listener questions and let you guide the show for once. So, we answer a few of your questions and then delve a little deeper into an entirely theoretical Red Bull takeover of the club.
The energy drink brand has clubs in Austria, Germany, the USA and Brazil, but there are rumours of interest in the Premier League. Some say Villa would be ripe for the picking; we disagree, and we can't imagine it happening. Nevertheless, the questions that underpin it are intriguing and worthy of discussion. Well, they are during an international break, anyway.
Don't forget you can read bitesize Villa news at Aston Villa Daily.
